1. Welcome Meeting #3 Talk with others at your table about how the “Change Game” has impacted your leadership in your school/district.

2. Agenda Teacher Leadership Principles to Action: Productive Struggle Productive Instructional Routines: Subtraction Number Talks Math Rules that Expire Action Plans

3. Larger context Advocate and Systematize Collaborate and Implement Leadership of Self Know and Model Leadership of Self Know and Model Leadership of Others Leadership in the Extended Community

4. Purpose of the Fellows 1.To be a part of and support a system that focuses on math making sense for all students. --Leadership in the Extended Community 2.To be a part of a community of learners that focuses on putting the shifts into practice to reflect the CCSS vision both around the student making sense of the mathematics and demonstrating that understanding. –Leadership of Others and Self 3.To deprivatize our practice and take risks in order to facilitate high quality mathematics instruction and experiences students have with the mathematics. –Leadership of Self

5. Washington State Learning Standards The new standards require us to teach math with focus, coherence, and rigor. As a table group sort the papers in the envelope into two categories of classroom practice – What teachers will do – What students will do

6. Our Iceberg is Melting: Changing and Succeeding Under Any Conditions

8. A FABLE? ABOUT PENGUINS? A fable is a way to make a serious and confusing topic clear and approachable while motivating all ages! “Handle the challenge of change well, and you can prosper greatly. Handle it poorly, and you put yourself and others at risk.” This is the story of a group of penguins who got it right!

9. SO…ONCE UPON A TIME There was a colony of penguins living in Antarctica on an iceberg. The iceberg had been there for many years and was surrounded by a sea rich in food. There were huge walls that gave protection from the snow. They had always lived there…life was good. Life was perfect. And everyone was happy…until it was time to make a change.

10. WHAT’S OUR ICEBERG? As we listen to this fable we want you to keep our iceberg in mind. We are embarking on an exciting shift…we need a new iceberg. Our iceberg is melting. Turn to a partner and chat about what you believe is our iceberg.

11. A SHIFT TO PERSONALIZED LEARNING… Creating a sense of urgency within myself…so I can contribute to the larger shift? How can I personally enhance my leadership skills so that I can be a part of the culture shift that needs to take place?

12. AS WE LEARN ABOUT OUR PENGUINS, KEEP THE FOLLOWING QUESTION IN MIND: Which one do you feel most represents you? Can you find pieces of yourself in more than one? As we all learn the fable listen to how the character most like you adapts, hinders, or contributes to the change initiative.

13. Think about what role you will play as we embark on our new iceberg. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM /WATCH?V=IQLABCOCJHG

14. MEET THE PENGUINS FRED – unusually observant, curious, creative, younger, level-headed ALICE – one of the leaders of the colony, a practical and tough bird, aggressive, makes things happen, doesn’t care about status and treats everyone the same, impossible to intimidate, smart (but not intellectual heavyweight) BUDDY – well liked and trusted but not very powerful, not the slightest ambitious, relates well with the average bird NONO – one of the colony leaders and a negative influencer who keeps trying to poke holes in Fred’s theory THE PROFESSOR – intellectual influencer, logical, well read, fascinated by interesting questions, not the most social of birds LOUIS – formal colony leader, well-respected yet conservative SCOUT AND SALLY ANN – helpful and excited to be part of the change

15. WHEN WERE YOU ONE OF THESE GUYS? Turn to your partner and chat about a time you can relate to one of these characters…

17. CREATING A SENSE OF URGENCY The students in our classrooms learn and process information differently than students we taught previously. We have to change the way we lead teachers in order for our students to be successful.

18. Make a T chart WHAT IS A 20 TH CENTURY LEARNER? Write down in the left column what you would consider to be 5 characteristics of a 20 th century learner? WHAT IS A 21 ST CENTURY LEARNER? Write down in the right column what you would consider to be 5 characteristics of a 21 st century learner.

19. Let’s see what research says about the differences in learners from the 20 th century to the ones we have today.

20. 20 TH CENTURY PARADIGM Individual Mainly summative assessment with some formative elements Numerical criteria Teacher centered Assessment focused Content with some process Just in case learning Lower level bloom’s Learning ABOUT technology

21. 21 ST CENTURY PARADIGMS Collaborative Formative with summative Criteria based assessment Student centered Process and outcome focused Differentiated Higher level blooms Problem solving/inquiry based Learning THROUGH technology

22. PULLING IT ALL TOGETHER… Using your graphic organizer, identify at least three instructional shifts that MUST occur knowing what we do about 21 st century learners. Each person should identify those shifts…then as a table identify the 5 most powerful shifts you feel should occur. Share!

23. EIGHT STEP PROCESS OF SUCCESSFUL CHANGE SET THE STAGE 1.Create a sense of urgency 2.Pull together the guiding team DECIDE WHAT TO DO 3. Develop the change vision and strategy MAKE IT HAPPEN 4.

44. Which one doesn’t belong?

46. Why Do We Do Math Together? - Leadership of self “Teaching mathematics requires specialized expertise and professional knowledge that includes not only knowing mathematics but knowing it in ways that make it useful for the work of teaching” (Ball & Forzani 2010; Ball, Thames, and Phelps 2008). -Principles to Action NCTM (p.11)

47. Number Talks How are number talks going in your classrooms?

48. Children who have been doing number talks have been using the properties all along to make sense of problems and make them easier to think about. All they have to learn when they get to algebra is an abstract way to label relationships they already understand.

49. Number Talk 63-28

50. Number Talks are about providing a safe place for students to try out ideas, and we don’t want accountability procedures to get in the way of this. - Ruth Parker

51. Exploring the Use of Various Strategies Number Talk Problems to try 71 – 39 91 – 26 223 – 219 236 – 188 337 – 159 Efficient, Generalizable Strategies for Subtraction Round the subtrahend to a multiple of ten and adjust Decompose the subtrahend Add instead Same Difference Break apart by place

52. Turn and Talk Which strategies did you tend to use the most? Were there any kinds of problems that called out for a different strategy?

53. Practicing Questioning with Number Talks Directions: Choose one person to deliver the Number Talk. The rest of your group will try and share ways to solve the problem using the Efficient, Generalizable Strategies for Subtraction. The person delivering the Number Talk practices questioning using the Questioning Handout. Repeat as time allows with a new member delivering the Number Talk each time. Problems to choose from: 315 – 97 84 – 36 34 – 27 93 – 28 72 – 56

54. Number talks: A High-leverage teaching strategy to transform the culture of the classroom FROM:TO: Teacher centered Student-centered – students have ideas worth listening to Teacher explaining the solution to an answer Students sharing their reasoning & strategies Focusing on the right answer Honoring how students arrive at a solution – even if it is wrong Math anxiety/low confidence Confidence in math ability One method of solving a problem – often using the standard algorithm Students are flexible in their thinking & reasoning Low student participation High student engagement & productive struggle
