Learning Math in Second Grade: An Application of Cognitive Apprenticeship

This paper provides a description of the concept of cognitive apprenticeship and outlines this instructional paradigm as one way to support young students’ learning of mathematics. The teaching of mathematics was embedded in the context of the cognitive apprenticeship (2 nd grade store) where tasks, aligned with the school district’s content standards, became meaningful and motivational for the students. Data analyses indicated that the students who studied math in the framework of a cognitive apprenticeship had higher math scores on the state’s standardized achievement test than those students who studied math in a traditional way.
