A collaboration between a seasoned math teacher and a research mathematician, this resource offers balanced instructional ideas based on student intellectual engagement and skilled teacher leadership. It is solidly grounded in many areas of classroom practice, but rather than serving as a prescriptive how-to manual, the authors invite reflection and discussion across classrooms and math departments, much in the way you would share ideas in the teachers’ lounge or across the table at a conference. Chapters offer practical suggestions and concrete examples to teachers of grades 6–12 on just about every aspect of the job: manipulatives, technology, lesson planning, group work, classroom discussion, and more. In opposition to the idea of a “one-size-fits-all” curriculum, the authors explain how to integrate teaching techniques: formal and informal, student-centered and teacher-led, experiential and rigorous. Chapters also include vignettes, as well as many links to curricular materials. Ideal for math educators of grades 6–12, this book is both comprehensive in its strategies and sensitive to the complexities of teaching. For these reasons, math departments, coaches, teacher leaders, and faculty at other levels can also easily reference its content where relevant. This book offers multiple entry points for teachers and departments to discuss and enhance their practice, making it essential reading for any math educator or professional development opportunity.

9 essays from members of the venerable Jewish peace and justice organisation, plus one from Judith Butler reframe the debate on the middle-east, and anti-semitism. "The eloquent testimonials in this myth-busting book are crucial reading for everyone concerned about Middle East peace." - Middle East Report "Jewish Voice for Peace has done us all a great service by publishing this smart little book, which shows nicely how the charge of anti-Semitism is used these days to silence Jews and non-Jews who criticize Israel's policies in the occupied territories." - John Mearsheimer, Professor of Political Science, University Of Chicago
