As a mathematics teacher, have you ever begun a lesson only to be met with groans, indifference, or avoidance? Have you ever looked across the hallway to see your colleague's math classroom full of engaged and excited students and wondered what you're doing wrong? In The SNAP Solution: An Innovative Math Assessment Tool for Grades K-8, authors Kirk Savage, Jonathan Ferris, and Tom Hierck dispel the common belief that student apathy toward mathematics is inevitable. Changing students' attitudes about math begins with a shift in the teacher's attitude and approach and a method that targets essential mathematical proficiencies. In this research-packed guide, math teachers will use the SNAP (student numeracy assessment and practice) method to ignite a sense of wonder in their students and leave days of frustration behind.
