And Mathematics

A partnership including 11 school districts, a university, service agency, and private nonprofit education organization formed a collaborative partnership to improve teaching and learning in elementary school science and mathematics. The partnership designed research-based professional development for 150 teachers of grades 3–5. The professional development resulted in statistically significant increases for those elementary school teachers on math and science competency tests over a two-year period. The professional development was the vehicle for providing teachers with professional development so that they could (a) increase their content background in science and mathematics and (b) apply newly learned inquiry practices in their math and science instruction.

Mathematics And Science

It has been said that mathematics is the queen of the sciences. However, if one wants a truly dynamic elementary school mathematics program, then one must promote the marriage of mathematics and science curriculums. We have only to study the current elementary school science and mathematics programs in order to realize that not only are mathematics and science unmarried, but neither curriculum reflects a very serious awareness of the other's existence.
