In 2001, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics

published the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics

Girls tend to enroll in fewer higher-level math classes than boys in high school and college. The reason for this might be the following:

Teachers and parents have higher expectations for boys in math.

Which of the following might be included in a multirepresentational approach to representing mathematical ideas?

all of the above

What is the most notable direction in mathematics instruction today?

problem solving

According to Jean Piaget, children develop schema through a process of adaptation which takes two forms. Those forms are:

accommodation and assimilation

According to sociocultural theory:

the teacher should simplify tasks to make them manageable and achievable.

Which of the following is a way to implement the NCTM Reasoning and Proof Process Standard?

ask students to share their solution process and encourage other students to comment or ask questions

Which of the following is NOT a mode of representation

Technology

The teacher asked a lot of high-level questions to understand student’s mathematical thinking. Which approach does the teacher use?

Constructivist approach

Which one is NOT pair of the CCSS five process standards?

Collaboration

One of the principal reasons for teaching geometry in elementary math classes is to:

draw connections between math and the environment

Children often enjoy the topics in a geometry unit because

learning about geometric properties and shapes helps them make sense of their environment as they become more capable of describing their world.

Lines that connect two or more points and can be traced in one continuous motion without ever retracing over a line are

transersable networks

The geometry program at the elementary level includes

studying two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes and objects

Which of the following types of experiences will not help students’ geometric thinking progress from one Van Hiele level to another?

memorizing names of shapes and their properties

Which of the following is NOT a regular polygon?

cube

Which of the following is NOT a type of rigid transformation?

congruence

A square is ____ a trapezoid

never

Which of the following is NOT a post-teaching activity?
