Digging Deeper into the Common Core Math Standards
Grades 4-6 October 2, 2013
2
Checking in… The area that my students are struggling on is….
The area that my students are doing well on is… Compared to last year, things related to teaching math are… This afternoon, I want to…
3
Inside-outside circles
Vocabulary Math facts… inner w/ facts, outer w/ answer Timed test and rotations Each get sheet, check answers and prove reasoning Explain your answer- how did you solve it? Flipped classroom, share what they learned More sharing and conversation
4
Storage Unit- Design You buy property and want to convert it to a storage unit. Design your storage unit on the graph paper provided.
6
Storage Unit- Monthly Rent
Complete the table. Describe the proportion used to calculate rent. Write an equation that expresses the rent: in terms of the volume? In terms of the dimensions and height?
8
5x5x10 10x25x10

Storage Unit- Modifying Prices
11
Storage Unit- Modifying Prices
12
Storage Unit- Modifying Prices
What did you have to consider? Strategies and approaches?
13
One possible solution…
14
Where SBAC has students going…
How might we want students to respond?
15
Processes required… Stamina to avoid fatigue
Reading comprehension Number sense, “common sense” Vocabulary Unlearn – key word tricks, table patterns Algebraic reasoning, multiplicative vs additive reasoning
16
Modifications? Grade level connections… 4th grade? 5th grade? 6th grade?
17
Mathematical Tasks (problems)
What is the “best” task or problem that you have posed this year? Describe: What was the task? How did you “launch” or set up the task? What did students do to explore the task?
18
Mathematical Tasks Professional Reading As you read….
What are the essential characteristics of good mathematical tasks? How can a task dictate or influence how a lesson goes?
19
Mathematical Tasks Reading
Let’s look at the tasks embedded in the article Which is the “easiest”? Why? Which is the “most difficult”? Why?
20
Mathematical Tasks Reading
Examples in the back…. What levels should we aim for when we plan most of our instructional tasks?
21
Mathematical Tasks in a Lesson
How do we embed tasks into a lesson? Thinking Thru a Lesson Protocol A framework to help you plan
22
Selecting and Setting Up a Task
How do you currently plan? Resources Curricula units How do you typically start a lesson? Hunter’s “anticipatory set” vs. “the launch”
23
Let’s Try One Collaborate to create a mathematical task aligned with Standards that you are going to teach in the near future
24
Supporting Students’ Exploration
Read through section 2 of the TTLP sheet For the task that you just created, what are the key considerations regarding section 2? Struggling students? Early finishers?
25
Discussing and debriefing tasks
Look at section 3 from the TTLP For the task that you just created, what are the key considerations regarding section 3? What are the mathematical ideas and concepts that we want students to take away?
26
Follow-up… What follow-up tasks and/or activities can we have students work through to build on what we have worked on?
27
Debriefing our time with TTLP
What did you work on? What worked well? Questions and/or struggles?
28
Planning Resources SBAC Practice Test
NCDPI Formative Instructional Tasks through Grade 5 Georgia Units
29
Goals for planning Mathematical tasks Consider the TTLP
30
Wrapping Up our time together
