LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Supporting Rigorous Mathematics Teaching and Learning Selecting and Sequencing Based on Essential Understandings Tennessee Department of Education Elementary School Mathematics Grade 5

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Rationale There is wide agreement regarding the value of teachers attending to and basing their instructional decisions on the mathematical thinking of their students (Warfield, 2001). By engaging in an analysis of a lesson-planning process, teachers will have the opportunity to consider the ways in which the process can be used to help them plan and reflect, both individually and collectively, on instructional activities that are based on student thinking and understanding. 2

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Session Goals Participants will learn about: goal-setting and the relationship of goals to the CCSS and essential understandings; essential understandings as they relate to selecting and sequencing student work; Accountable Talk ® moves related to essential understandings; and prompts that problematize or “hook” students during the Share, Discuss, and Analyze phase of the lesson. 3

“The effectiveness of a lesson depends significantly on the care with which the lesson plan is prepared.” Brahier,

“During the planning phase, teachers make decisions that affect instruction dramatically. They decide what to teach, how they are going to teach, how to organize the classroom, what routines to use, and how to adapt instruction for individuals.” Fennema & Franke, 1992, p

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Contextualizing Our Work Together Imagine that you are working with a group of students who have the following understanding of the concepts. 70% of the students need to multiply fractions. (5.NF.B4 and 5.NF.B5) 20% of the students need additional work on fraction standards previously addressed (4.NF standards). These students also need opportunities to struggle with and make sense of the problem. (MP1) 5% of the students still do not recognize the importance of knowing what the “whole” is when talking about fractions. (Part of 4.NF.A2) 5% of the students struggle to pay attention and their understanding of mathematics is two grade levels below fifth grade. 10

The CCSS for Mathematics: Grade 5 Number and Operations – Fractions 5.NF Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions. 5.NF.B.7 Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. 5.NF.B.7a Interpret division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for (1/3) ÷ 4, and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (1/3) ÷ 4 = 1/12 because (1/12) x 4 = 1/3. 5.NF.B.7b Interpret division of a whole number by a unit fraction, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for 4 ÷ (1/5), and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that 4 ÷ (1/5) = 20 because 20 x (1/5) = 4. 5.NF.B.7c Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by non-zero whole numbers and division of whole numbers by unit fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, how much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 1/3-cup servings are in 2 cups of raisins?

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Essential Understanding Equal Size Pieces A fraction describes the division of a whole or unit (region, set, segment) into equal parts. A fraction is relative to the size of the whole or unit. Continuous and Discrete Figures A fraction can be continuous (linear model), or a measurable quantity (area model), or a group of discrete/countable things (set model) but, regardless of the model, what remains true about all of the models is that they represent equal parts of a whole. Meaning of the Denominator The larger the name of the denominator, the smaller the size of the piece. Dividing Fractions When dividing a fraction by a whole number, every iteration of the unit fraction needs to be divided by the whole number. Dividing by Fractions When dividing a whole number by a unit fraction, the number of times that the unit fraction fits inside the whole number is determined by the denominator.

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Academic Rigor in a Thinking Curriculum The Share, Discuss, and Analyze Phase of the Lesson 32

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Academic Rigor In a Thinking Curriculum A teacher must always be assessing and advancing student learning. A lesson is academically rigorous if student learning related to the essential understanding is advanced in the lesson. Accountable Talk discussion is the means by which teachers can find out what students know or do not know and advance them to the goals of the lesson. 33

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Accountable Talk Discussions Recall what you know about the Accountable Talk features and indicators. In order to recall what you know: Study the chart with the Accountable Talk moves. You are already familiar with the Accountable Talk moves that can be used to Ensure Purposeful, Coherent, and Productive Group Discussion. Study the Accountable Talk moves associated with creating accountability to:  the learning community;  knowledge; and  rigorous thinking. 34

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Accountable Talk Features and Indicators Accountability to the Learning Community Active participation in classroom talk. Listen attentively. Elaborate and build on each others’ ideas. Work to clarify or expand a proposition. Accountability to Knowledge Specific and accurate knowledge. Appropriate evidence for claims and arguments. Commitment to getting it right. Accountability to Rigorous Thinking Synthesize several sources of information. Construct explanations and test understanding of concepts. Formulate conjectures and hypotheses. Employ generally accepted standards of reasoning. Challenge the quality of evidence and reasoning. 35

Accountable Talk Moves Talk MoveFunctionExample To Ensure Purposeful, Coherent, and Productive Group Discussion MarkingDirect attention to the value and importance of a student’s contribution. That’s an important point. One factor tells use the number of groups and the other factor tells us how many items in the group. Challenging Redirect a question back to the students or use students’ contributions as a source for further challenge or query. Let me challenge you: Is that always true? Revoicing Align a student’s explanation with content or connect two or more contributions with the goal of advancing the discussion of the content. S: You said three groups of four. Recapping Make public in a concise, coherent form, the group’s achievement at creating a shared understanding of the phenomenon under discussion. Let me put these ideas all together. What have we discovered? To Support Accountability to Community Keeping the Channels Open Ensure that students can hear each other, and remind them that they must hear what others have said. Say that again and louder. Can someone repeat what was just said? Keeping Everyone Together Ensure that everyone not only heard, but also understood, what a speaker said. Can someone add on to what was said? Did everyone hear that? Linking Contributions Make explicit the relationship between a new contribution and what has gone before. Does anyone have a similar idea? Do you agree or disagree with what was said? Your idea sounds similar to his idea. Verifying and Clarifying Revoice a student’s contribution, thereby helping both speakers and listeners to engage more profitably in the conversation. So are you saying..? Can you say more? Who understood what was said? 36

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2012 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH To Support Accountability to Knowledge Pressing for Accuracy Hold students accountable for the accuracy, credibility, and clarity of their contributions. Why does that happen? Someone give me the term for that. Building on Prior Knowledge Tie a current contribution back to knowledge accumulated by the class at a previous time. What have we learned in the past that links with this? To Support Accountability to Rigorous Thinking Pressing for Reasoning Elicit evidence to establish what contribution a student’s utterance is intended to make within the group’s larger enterprise. Say why this works. What does this mean? Who can make a claim and then tell us what their claim means? Expanding Reasoning Open up extra time and space in the conversation for student reasoning. Does the idea work if I change the context? Use bigger numbers? Accountable Talk Moves (continued) 37

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH The Share, Discuss, and Analyze Phase of the Lesson: Planning a Discussion (Small Group Discussion) From the list of potential EUs and its related student work, each group will select an essential understanding to focus their discussion. Identify a teacher in the group who will be in charge of leading a discussion with the group after the Accountable Talk moves related to the EU have been written. Write a set of Accountable Talk moves on chart paper so it is public to your group for the next stage in the process. 38

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH An Example: Accountable Talk Discussion 39

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Problematize the Accountable Talk Discussion (Whole Group Discussion) Using the list of essential understandings identified earlier, write Accountable Talk discussion questions to elicit from students a discussion of the mathematics. Begin the discussion with a “hook” to get student attention focused on an aspect of the mathematics. Type of HookExample of a Hook Compare and Contrast Compare the half that has two equal pieces with the figure that has three pieces. Insert a Claim and Ask if it is True Three equal pieces of the six that are on one side of the figure show half of the figure. If I move the three pieces to different places in the whole, is half of the figure still shaded? Challenge You said two pieces are needed to create halves. How can this be half; it has three pieces? A Counter-Example If this figure shows halves (a figure showing three sixths), tell me about this figure (a figure showing three sixths but the sixths are not equal pieces). 40

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH An Example: Accountable Talk Discussion The Focus Essential Understanding Continuous and Discrete Figures A fraction can be continuous (linear model), or a measurable quantity (area model), or a group of discrete/countable things (set model) but, regardless of the model, what remains true about all of the models is that they represent equal parts of a whole. Group F Group G One group used a number line and one group used an area model. How can this be? Can they both model the problem? (Hook) Can Group F explain where the whole and where the stops are? Who understood what they said about the divisions of the line? (Community) Can you say back what they said about the meaning of the numerator and denominator for Bobby’s hike? (Community) Each group made statements about the model being accurate to the context. Where do we see division in each of the models? (Rigor) 41

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Revisiting Your Accountable Talk Prompts with an Eye Toward Problematizing Revisit your Accountable Talk prompts. Have you problematized the mathematics so as to draw students’ attention to the mathematical goal of the lesson? If you have already problematized the work, then underline the prompt in red. If you have not problematized the lesson, do so now. Write your problematizing prompt in red at the bottom and indicate where you would insert it in the set of prompts. We will be doing a Gallery Walk after we role play. 42

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Role Play Our Accountable Talk Discussion You will have 15 minutes to role play the discussion of one essential understanding. Identify one observer in the group. The observer will keep track of the discussion moves used in the lesson. The teacher will engage you in a discussion. (Note: You are well-behaved students.) The goals for the lesson are:  to engage all students in the group in developing an understanding of the EU; and  to gather evidence of student understanding based on what the student shares during the discussion. 43

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Reflecting on the Role-Play: The Accountable Talk Discussion The observer has 2 minutes to share observations related to the lessons. The observations should be shared as “noticings.” Others in the group have 1 minute to share their “noticings.” 44

LEARNING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER © 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ACCOUNTABLE TALK ® IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Reflecting on the Role Play: The Accountable Talk Discussion (Whole Group Discussion) Now that you have engaged in role playing, what are you now thinking about regarding Accountable Talk discussions? 45
