About Johnnie’s Math Page<\/h3>\n

Johnnie’s Math Page is built for fun and exploration.<\/p>\n

I built the first version of this website.  I worked as a math coach at a school that had not performed well on state tests and needed some help- especially in math.<\/p>\n

I worked with teachers to better math teaching practices.  I taught groups of students as well- some who just needed some help to get better at math and some who were interested in math and just needed some challenge and encouragement.<\/p>\n

The only room available at the school for teaching these small groups was the computer lab.  So you can imagine how Johnnie’s Math Page came into being.<\/p>\n

The first version contained about 30 sites worth visiting.  I was fortunate to have the page hosted by Lloyd Tabb’s portal everyschool.org.  I was fortunate to have the Kathy Schrock post the site as “Site of the Day” on her portal for teachers.  I built and rebuilt the site as it became more popular.  Early versions featured many Flash activities.  The present version is tablet and chromebook friendly.<\/p>\n

I was an elementary teacher, teaching mostly fifth grade.  I completed my Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Teacher Education at Stanford University.  I studied mathematics education as a doctoral student at the University of California, Santa Cruz.  I teach courses at the University for beginning teachers and courses for teaching mathematics to children.  I also contribute to the California Mathematics Council and am on the advisory board for the California Mathematics Project.  I regularly present at conferences.<\/p>\n

I work with schools in California and abroad.  I spent a number of years as a middle school math teacher and teacher coach in Munich Germany.  Most recently I taught as teacher in residence at the Istanbul International Community School.<\/p>\n
