Merseth, Katherine Klippert – NCTM Yearbook, 1978
Helping teachers to build a strong bridge from concrete experiences to algorithms is the focus. A detailed sequence of activities is described. (MN)
Descriptors: Addition, Algorithms, Computation, Elementary Education
Hazekamp, Donald W. – NCTM Yearbook, 1978
Instructional sequences are presented for teaching two-digit multiplication and division with one- and two-digit divisors using a base-oriented approach. (MN)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Computation, Division, Elementary Education
Ellerbruch, Lawrence W.; Payne, Joseph N. – NCTM Yearbook, 1978
A teaching sequence provides a guide to instruction on initial concepts of fractions, equivalent fractions, and addition with fractions. (MN)
Descriptors: Addition, Algorithms, Cognitive Development, Computation
Inskeep, James E., Jr. – NCTM Yearbook, 1978
How teachers can diagnose difficulties with computation is discussed, with emphasis on how to develop diagnostic tests. How to use such tests to plan remediation is considered in terms of several types of errors. (MN)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Basic Skills, Computation, Diagnostic Tests
Hamrick, Katherine B.; McKillip, William D. – NCTM Yearbook, 1978
The changing role of computational skills is discussed. A level of computational skill desirable in light of predictable future needs is proposed, and four reasons for advocating that level are discussed. (MN)
