This math content course will give students deep knowledge of the foundational math content that is covered in the elementary grades. While students will already have learned some of this content during their own K-12 experience, the research on mathematics teaching and learning in the U.S. tells us that most students will have significant gaps in their understanding and many will have negative affect toward the study of mathematics. By providing them with a strong foundational understanding of topics such as number theory, algebra, fractions, and geometry,m students will be better prepared cognitively and affectively to teach these topics to children. Course objectives will be aligned with the PA Academic Standards and Assessment Anchors for elementary grades.
