    The document discusses teaching number and number sense for grades 7-10. It defines number sense as a person's understanding of numbers and operations and their ability to use this flexibly to solve problems. The strand focuses on understanding different number systems like whole numbers, integers, fractions, decimals, and applying them to real world situations. The objectives are to read, write, understand relationships among numbers and number systems, understand operations and relationships between them, and choose strategies to compute and estimate. Content includes whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percent, ratio, proportion, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, and real numbers. Mastery involves motivation, technology, group work, games, worksheets, and assessments while reinforcing formal introduction of

    TEACHING

    NUMBER AND
    NUMBER
    SENSE (7-10)

    JENILYN E. SAMACO
    Number Sense

    A “good intuition about numbers and their


    relationships. It develops gradually as a result
    of exploring numbers, visualizing them in a
    variety of contexts, and relating them in ways
    that are not limited by traditional algorithms”
    (Howden, 1989).
    Number Sense

    – T h e NCTM Standards call for students in Pre-K through grade 2


    to understand numbers, be able to represent them in different ways
    and explore relationships among numbers. Flexible thinking
    with regard to numbers should continue to be developed as
    students in the upper grades work with larger numbers, fractions,
    decimals, and percent. But number sense development must begin
    in kindergarten, as it forms the foundation for many ideas that
    follow.
    Number Sense

    –  Number sense refers to a person's general understanding of


    number and operations along with the ability to use this
    understanding in flexible ways to make mathematical judgments
    and to develop useful strategies for solving complex problems
    (Burton, 1993; Reys, 1991).
    Number Sense

    This strand focuses on students’ understanding of numbers


    (counting numbers, whole numbers, integers, fractions, decimals,
    real numbers and complex numbers), properties, operations,
    estimation and their applications to real-world situations. The
    learning activities must address students’ understanding of relative
    size, equivalent forms of numbers and the use of numbers to
    represent attributes of real world objects and quantities.
    General Objectives:

    • Read, write and understand the meaning order and


    relationship among numbers and number systems;
    • Understand the meaning, use and relationships between
    operations on numbers;
    • Choose and use different strategies to compute and
    estimate.
    It is in high school that much of mathematics is formally introduced. High
    school mathematics prepares students for university and college as well
    as provides them with the comprehensive set of mathematical concepts
    and skills that they need should they decide to find employment right
    after year 10 or 11. At these grade levels, the mathematics taught is
    formal, highly structural, highly symbolic and high level.

    “Success in Math does not depend on how
    many answers you know, but by what you
    do when you don’t know the answer.”
