I have something I want to share with you all. At NCTM Denver last week, I got to talk with Pam Harris in person. She shared a new white paper with me called Comparing Mathematics Education to the Science of Reading. Pam and Dr. Catherine Beals put it together through Math is Figureoutable. I've attached it here.
So many of us are hearing the phrase "science of math". This paper puts math and reading side by side and shows where they connect and where they don't. It's clear, thoughtful, and easy to read.
Pam was very excited about one particular aspect of the paper. Reading has a narrow foundational piece, decoding, that research can focus on. Math doesn't have a single piece like that. It's a whole, broad discipline.
I hope you find it as helpful as I did. If something stands out to you, I'd love to hear about it.
