For new secondary math teachers, in particular those who do not have a mentor to aid them in developing classroom skills, this book covers various aspects of teaching the subject. Posamentier (mathematics education, City College of the City U. of New York) et al. discuss elements of being a math teacher today, curriculum, the effective use of technology and textbooks, lesson plans and how to teach specific concepts, instruction for problem solving, assessment, and extracurricular activities and professional development.
