The bestselling first edition of Children’s Mathematics helped hundreds of thousands of teachers understand children’s intuitive mathematical thinking and use that knowledge to help children learn mathematics with understanding. The highly anticipated Second Edition provides new insights about Cognitively Guided Instruction based on the authors’ research and experience in CGI classrooms over the last 15 years. Highlights include: how children solve problems using their intuitive understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division the development of children’s mathematical thinking throughout the primary grades instructional practices that promote children’s active engagement in mathematics connections between children’s strategies and powerful mathematical concepts A new expanded collection of over 90 online video episodes illustrating children’s mathematical thinking, interactions between students and teachers, and classroom instruction that builds on children’s mathematical thinking. Together, the Second Edition and videos provide a detailed research-based account of the development of children’s mathematical thinking and problem solving, and how teachers can promote this development in ways that honor children’s thinking.

The book was fantastic before, but the updates make it a teacher must have. We use Cognitive Guided Instruction in our K-8 district for math instruction. My son is a sophomore at the high school. His geometry math teacher requires parents to attend individual tutoring sessions on Saturdays. I found the teacher to be very skilled in following the student's lead in working through problems. When I commented on how well he supported student learning, he turned and pulled Children's Mathematics off of his shelf to share with me. He was surprised to find out it is a resource in the hands of every elementary teacher in our district. He had purchased the book as a resource when going to work in the Peace Corps. Review: Amazing teaching resource - This is a great book! Every teacher should have a copy.

Very informative
I bought this book for school and it’s very informative. It provides children’s work as examples, you can scan codes through the pages and it directs you to videos. Instead of just reading you can actually see the videos. Very easy to understand, very well explained.

Highly recommend!
This book was one of my textbooks for a curriculum and instruction class. I was trying to be frugal and opted to rent this book instead of buying it. I am going to have to buy this book thought because it's great! I will certainly be using Cognitively guided instruction in my future classroom and I learned so much.

EXCELLENT resource!
I am a reading specialist, so I've not had a lot of in depth professional development on math instruction. What I got in college 15 years ago was nothing compared to what I've learned from reading this book. I just wish I had known this sooner, as it would have radically changed the way I think about how math instruction should be handled. EXCELLENT resource!
