Think of a math journal as a problem-solving notebook. Too often as students learn to ‘do math’ they only learn the ‘How.’ The results are often mixed and less than optimal. But when we teach them the ‘How’ and the “Why’ , we take their ability to succeed in mathematics to an entirely new level.
We encourage students to share their journal entries by discussing their various strategies and thought processes. A good math journal is one which requires students to organize, clarify and reflect on the solution or method used to solve the problem.
Math journals also provide teachers with incredible insight into a student’s aptitude and how they approach problem-solving. It becomes an invaluable assessment tool not only for the student but can help drive instructional decisions for the teacher.
