Housekeeping

  • Restrooms
  • Breaks
  • Lunch
  • please silence all cell phones
  • be mindful when others were speaking
  • don't be selfish...if a great conversation is

taking place at your table please be willing to share

  • using #CSRA-RESA

Broken Squares

  • Designate a shape keeper
  • 6 congruent squares
  • No shapes left over
  • Everyone is encouraged to OFFER.

No one may TAKE. They may ACCEPT a puzzle piece to use if OFFERED.

Act 4: The Sequel

Penny Cubed 1.5: The Weight of it All?

  • How much does it weigh?
  • Penny Cube 2: Invasion of the Quarters!
  • Quarters would fit nicely in this cube as
  • well. Which would you rather have, a

cube of pennies or a cube of quarters?

Act 4: The Sequel

“Algebrafy” the Mathematics

  • How much money could we fit

in this room?

  • Can you find a rule that would

tell us how much money could fit in any room?

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Standards for Mathematical Practice

Look at your SMP and create an anchor chart describing what it should/could look like in a 3rd-5th grade classroom.

  • Explain the standard using numbers, pictures and/or words to

describe what it could look like.

  • what might the teacher be doing
  • examples of student thinking
  • types of tasks used (can you connect your SMP to Penny Cubed?)
slide-14
SLIDE 14
slide-15
SLIDE 15

What is mathematical modeling?

  • Put simply, mathematical modeling is the

process of using mathematical tools and methods to ask and answer questions about real-world situations (Abrams 2012).

  • Is it a noun or is it a verb?
slide-16
SLIDE 16

decontextualize contextualized

The sole use of manipulatives does not ensure that students are modeling mathematics.

  • The model must be serving a context for students to be engaged in mathematical modeling.

SLIDE 18

The Condominium Problem

  • In a particular condominium

community 2/3 of all of the men are married to 3/5 of all of the women.

  • What fraction of the entire

condominium community are married?

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Three approaches to math instruction:

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Level 1: "three step procedure" (the calculator)

  • provide no explanations
  • be very clear how to solve the problem
  • suggest that there will be more condo problems to practice for

homework and you'll see this exact same type of problem on the Georgia Milestone Assessment

  • “Today we’re working on common numerator…here’s a

problem”

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Level 2: "this is how you" (the repeater)

  • teacher directed approach very conceptual
  • it is the teacher doing the thinking
  • students are only engaged in low level responses and their

participation is dependent on their willingness to attend to your “wonderful” lecture.

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Level 3: the questioner (the problem solver)

  • relentless questioning
  • know when to walk away AND be less helpful
  • student led discussions and strategies are shared
  • teacher leaves a trail of understanding

I have no idea what I’m doing making sense of the math and being able to apply it.

A Look Back

We need to change

  • 1995

TIMMS

slide-31
SLIDE 31
slide-32
SLIDE 32

TIMMS video take-aways:

  • 0:38- Seventy degrees. Go from there. Now you have supplementary

angles, don't you?

  • 1:43- Somebody just gave me the answer.
  • 11:10- Okay, I know you don't like these protractors but- you use these

because I want everybody to use the same one.

  • 11:28- You know I am gonna give you plus or minus five degrees on a quiz,

so don't worry about it.

  • 17:00- All the rest are done the same way. Any questions? I’m curious to

see, when you get down to number 37 and 38, you’re gonna have to think a little bit.

slide-33
SLIDE 33

Looking Back

We need to change

  • 1995

TIMMs We need to change

  • GPS (2003-2010)

Process Standards

  • CCGPS 2014

Georgia Milestones

slide-34
SLIDE 34

How can we continue to promote and support best practice in our districts and schools? Hyper-focusing our attention on the Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs)

  • Teacher

Student Task

slide-35
SLIDE 35

Reflect:

  • Using the SMP rubric, grade

yourself on the last math lesson you taught.

  • Focus on at least SMPs

numbered 1, 2, 3, & 4

  • Share and discuss any ah-ha’s

with your group or table

Pitfalls

Food for thought

  • who usually asks all the math questions in class?
  • who normally has all the information?
  • who normally validates student answers?
  • How does this task align with the

Standards for Mathematical Practice?

slide-57
SLIDE 57

Division: one of the most difficult math concepts we teach in elementary school?

  • MCC4.NBT

.6 Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

  • A big dog weighs five times as much

as a little dog.

  • The little dog weighs 2/3 as much as

a medium-sized dog.

  • The medium-sized dog weighs 9

pounds more than the little dog.

  • How much does the big dog weigh?

Solve without using any numbers

  • r letters!
