Offers the analytical foundation teachers need to inform their practice, specifically in mathematics. This book serves as a deep dive into computer science (CS) integration for elementary teachers, providing guidelines for designing integrated CS / math curricula through case studies and practical examples.

How-to books related to computer science (CS) and teaching CS in K–12 environments are often either step-by-step guides or reference books, with little or no connection to pedagogy. By contrast, Coding Math offers the analytical foundation teachers need to inform their practice, specifically in mathematics. This book will serve as a deep dive into CS integration for elementary teachers, providing guidelines for designing integrated CS/math curricula through case studies and practical examples. Grounded in research, the book’s mini-lessons contrast visual-based coding with text-based programming and provide guidance in the selection and creation of lessons, instructional materials and CS platforms to help educators prepare students for the careers of the future.
