Follow the directions on the first page in the “Situational Problems” section of your binder.
You will find blank paper, markers, and crayons on the tables.
When you are finished see if you can learn something new about the people at your table.

2. June 10-14,2013 Dear Terrific Teachers,. Good Morning
June 10-14,2013 Dear Terrific Teachers, Good Morning! Welcome Teachers to the “Situational Problems” session of your training. We are happy to see you today. Please make sure you have responded to the morning message question. We hope you enjoy the day and leave with new information to help you teach the math CCSS in your classroom Sincerely, MNPS Instructional Coaches

3rd and 4th Grade – Benchmark Assessments
Today we will address grade levels k-4 activities. It may or may not meet your grade level
Think of ways to adapt the activities to meet your needs

8. Rationale
“Effective teaching requires being able to support students as they work on challenging tasks without taking over the process of thinking for them.”
NCTM, 2000
“In this session teachers will learn about three types of situational word problems that can provide students with an understanding of the structure of problems and foundation that links directly to a set of key mathematical understandings that can be built directly from students’ solution paths.”
-Warfield, 2001

9. CCSS Standards Kindergarten: Operations and Algebraic Thinking
1. Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings, sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.
2. Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.

11. CCSS Standards
First Grade: Operations and Algebraic Thinking
1. Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

12. CCSS Standards Second Grade: Operations and Algebraic Thinking
1. Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting
together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

13. Common Addition and Subtraction Situations
4 problem types to be mastered by the end of the kindergarten year
11 problem types to be mastered by the end of the first grade year
All 15 problem types to be mastered by the end of the second grade year

14. Classify Problems
Using the CommonAddition and Subtraction Situations Table write an equation for each problem on the handout and determine which type of problem it is.

15. Stand Up...HandUp…Pair Up…
Students stand up, put their hands up, and quickly find a partner with whom to share or discuss
Teacher says, “When I say go, you will ‘stand up, hand up, and pair up’.” Teacher pauses, then says, “Go!”
Students stand up and keep one hand high in the air until they find the closest partner who’s not a teammate. Students do a “high five” and put their hands down.
Teacher may ask a question or give an assignment, and provides think time.
Partners interact using: Rally Robin or Timed Pair Share

17. Performance Tasks
Constructed Response Assessments given to 3rd and 4th grades in October and February
Students need weekly practice with performance tasks to succeed on the CRA
Although the CRA is not required in 1st and 2nd grades it is recommended that students gain experience with performance assessments. Examples can be found on the TN Core website:

19. Structures and Routines of a Lesson
Individual work time (5 minutes) to generate solution
Small group sharing (10 minutes) to compare solutions
Share and discuss (30 minutes) to focus on key mathematical concepts
Quick write (10 minutes) to reflect on process

20. Performance Based Assessments
PBAs are read aloud to students in K-2
Example of a kindergarten performance task:
Jack has some magic beans . If he gives his mother 3 beans every day how many days will it take before he gives her 12 beans?

21. Grade Level Problem Solving
At your tables solve the problem in your handout. Use diagrams, pictures, number lines, and/or equations to show your solution.
Equations have equal signs ( = 29)
Expressions are a strategy to solve a problem. 22
+ 7
Be prepared to explain and share your solution.

24. Dueling Flipcharts Students line up in front of flipchart.
Each team has one marker.
Student writes 1 idea and hands the marker to the teammate behind him/her.
Repeat until teacher calls time.

25. Reflections Dueling Flipcharts
Record one thing that you learned today. It can be an idea, strategy, or “take away” that you found to be useful.
