Mathematics And Science

Mathematics and science seem to be terms that are joined together in our common language almost as firmly as day and night, salt and pepper, and love and marriage! Everywhere, that is, but in our typical elementary school program. Here, for some reason, a dichotomy of emphasis occurs. As every experi enced teacher knows, mathematics is commonly taught quite separately from science. Children may not be led to discover the relationships that exist between these two major investigative activities of the human mind.

A more appropriate and informative title for this discussion might be “Astronomy, Space Travel, and Arithmetic.” An attempt will be made here to support the claim that the study of arithmetic and of topics from space science can be coordinated in the elementary school program. Further, it is claimed that this coordination can enhance both the mathematics and science areas and that each can promote learning in the other. The author hopes to provide some ideas that teachers might use to give variety to their lessons.

Do So

In this paper, we utilize the theory of translanguaging to make sense of the biliterate activities of young emergent bilinguals in a before-school program for Latinx students at an elementary school. Our findings show that even early writers are able to draw from their full linguistic repertoire, utilizing orthographic and syntactic resources consciously, and continue to do so with increasing complexity as they get older and gain greater competence. The children in our study show how emergent bilinguals exhibit exceptionally sophisticated considerations of audience as they write across linguistically and culturally-diverse communities, navigating these in their writing, as they do in their daily lives. Opportunities for students to demonstrate and develop these skills are critical, especially in monolingual settings.

Media Applications

This study aims to ascertain (1) the inventiveness of university students in developing digital media for science education. (2) provides an overview of elementary science media applications that students can develop, and (3) discusses the obstacles students encountered while developing digital media for elementary science learning during COVID-19. This study took place at Yogyakarta State University and Makassar State University. The sample size for this study is 142 students, including 71 UNM students and 71 UNY students. The approach is descriptive with a quantitative component. Thus, the results demonstrated students' creativity in developing science media during the COVID-19 pandemic, as measured by five characteristics: fluency, flexibility, originality, elaboration, and sensitivity. Students can create media by using applications such as PowerPoint, Articulate Storyline, Flipbook Maker, Wondershare Filmora, and a variety of other supporting platforms (websites). However, students face obstacles in four areas when developing media, including fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration, namely (1) students continue to struggle with integrating science learning media into elementary school through the use of appropriate approaches/models/learning methods, (2) determining the variety of problem-solving strategies available to users of science learning media in elementary school, and (3) determining the variety of problem-solving strategies available to users of science learning media in elementary school. (3) difficulty identifying science learning media for elementary schools located in areas without internet access due to the COVID-19 pandemic and others.

As with fifth and sixth grades, the seventh grade classroom depends on whether the school is an elementary school or middle school. In many Kindergarten through eighth grade schools in Philadelphia, seventh graders have two different teachers rather than only one as with sixth graders. One teacher concentrates on literacy and social studies, while the other teacher takes on mathematics and science. These students cycle between two different classrooms. In contrast, students in middle schools may have a homeroom teacher, but they cycle through a number of different classrooms and teachers for each subject. Their school experiences are much different from those of students who only travel between two classrooms.
