SLIDE 11 Today’s Goals
  • Understand the structure of 3-act task and see
how they fit into the scope and sequence of a unit.
  • Investigate mathematical modeling (SMP #4)
  • Explore the importance of progressional
understanding and how a good task can be used as formative assessment.
  • Multiplication
  • Understand the importance of an effective closing
and the role it plays in deciding our next move.

3-Act Tasks

Act 1:
  • Real world problem or scenario presented
  • What do you notice? What do you wonder?
  • Make estimates
Act 2:
  • Identify missing variables and missing variables to solve
  • Define solution path using variables
Act 3:
  • Solve and interpret results of the solution
  • Validate answer
slide-47
SLIDE 47 Most asked questions:
  • How often should we use 3-Act Tasks?
  • When should we use 3-Act tasks? How do
they fit into the scope of a unit?
  • How long does one task usually take?
  • What if we don’t have the time?
slide-48
SLIDE 48 Standards for Mathematical Practice
  • 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
  • 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
  • 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of
  • thers.
  • 4. Model with mathematics.
  • 5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
  • 6. Attend to precision.
  • 7. Look for and make use of structure.
  • 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

SLIDE 50 What is mathematical modeling? What is modeling with mathematics?
slide-51
SLIDE 51 What ISN’T mathematical modeling
  • The use of manipulatives does not ensure that
modeling with mathematics is taking place.
  • If the mathematics is not contextualized, modeling
with mathematics cannot exist.
  • Modeling with mathematics does not mean, “I do,
we do, you do.”
slide-52
SLIDE 52 Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early grades, this might be as simple as writing an addition equation to describe a situation. Mathematically proficient students who can apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision later. They are able to identify important quantities in a practical situation and map their relationships using such tools as diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas. They can analyze those relationships mathematically to draw
  • conclusions. They routinely interpret their mathematical results
in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose. Model with Mathematics

  • 1. Anticipating student responses to challenging mathematical tasks;
  • 2. Monitoring students’ work on and engagement with the tasks;
  • 3. Selecting particular students to present their mathematical work;
  • 4. Sequencing the student responses that will be displayed in a specific
  • rder and;
  • 5. Connecting different students’ responses and connecting the responses
to key mathematical ideas.
