Mathematical practices describe the habits of mathematically proficient students … Who is doing the talking? Who is doing the math? - Cathy Seely 9/14/2015 page 11

ACTIVITY: Mathematical Practices In your groups: * Read description of the given mathematical practice *Discuss within your group *Determine examples of lessons, activities, etc. that fit your practice; record on chart paper *Describe how it looks in the classroom  What is the teacher doing?  What are the students doing?

1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 9/14/2015 page 13

9/14/2015 page 14 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) 1.Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. DO STUDENTS: Use multiple representations (verbal descriptions, symbolic, tables, graphs, etc.)? Check their answers using different methods? Continually ask, “Does this make sense?” Understand the approaches of others and identify correspondences between different approaches? Mathematical Practices

9/14/2015 page Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. cc: onlinemathtutor.org

9/14/2015 page 16 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. DO STUDENTS: Make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations? Decontextualize a problem? Contextualize a problem? Create a coherent representation of the problem, consider the units involved, and attend to the meaning of quantities? Mathematical Practices

9/14/2015 page Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.

9/14/2015 page 18 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) 3.Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. DO STUDENTS: Make conjectures and build a logical progression of statements to explore the truth of their conjectures? Analyze situations and recognize and use counter examples? Justify their conclusions, communicate them to others, and respond to arguments of others? Hear or read arguments of others and decide whether they make sense, and ask useful questions to clarify or improve the argument? Mathematical Practices

4. Model with mathematics. 4. Model with mathematics. 9/14/2015 page 19

9/14/2015 page 20 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) 4.Model with mathematics. DO STUDENTS: Apply the mathematics they know to solve problems in everyday life? Apply what they know and make assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation as an initial approach? Identify important quantities in a practical situation? Analyze relationships mathematically to draw conclusions? Interpret their mathematical results in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense? Mathematical Practices

5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 9/14/2015 page 21

9/14/2015 page 22 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) 5.Use appropriate tools strategically. DO STUDENTS: Consider the available tools when solving mathematical problems? Know the tools appropriate for their grade or course to make sound decisions about when each of these tools might be helpful? Identify relevant external mathematical resources and use them to pose or solve problems? Use technological tools to explore and deepen their understanding of concepts? Mathematical Practices

6. Attend to precision. 9/14/2015 page 23

9/14/2015 page 24 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) Attend to precision. 6. Attend to precision. DO STUDENTS: Communicate precisely to others? Use clear definitions? Use the equal sign consistently and appropriately? Calculate accurately and efficiently? Mathematical Practices

7. Look for and make use of structure. Where’s the math?

9/14/2015 page 26 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect) 7. Look for and make use of structure. structure. DO STUDENTS: Look closely to determine a pattern or structure? Utilize properties? Decompose and recombine numbers and expressions? Mathematical Practices

8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

9/14/2015 page 28 Teacher Actions (Cause)Student Practice (Effect). Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. DO STUDENTS: Notice if calculations are repeated, and look both for general methods and for shortcuts? Maintain oversight of the process, while attending to the details? Continually evaluate the reasonableness of their intermediate result? Mathematical Practices

The value of the common core is only as good as the implementation of the mathematical practices. -- Jere Confrey 9/14/2015 page 29

Alignment of CCSS and your textbook Middle School Teachers: Middle School Teachers: -use your pacing guide and crosswalk to find those NCSCOS objectives that align with CCSS and write the page number you can use to teach that standard High School Teachers: High School Teachers: -use your Core-Plus alignment documents to write the standard in your book on the pages that align with each investigation.
