Lesson study report : making mathematical connections

Abstract

This report provides a detailed outline of the lesson study process that teachers engaged in to plan, teach, evaluate and re-teach one lesson of mathematics. It includes details about the meetings held, the two lessons taught by two different teachers, the objectives and aims for doing this lesson, the two lesson plans, photographs of the lesson, and comments from students, teachers and observers. Our aim is to disseminate one practice of teachers working together. Through this document, we seek not only to help others understand the planning and implementation process, but also provide a resource that other teachers may use in their teaching and serving as a support framework for carrying out other lesson studies in whatever subject/area of study.
