12. The Standards for Mathematical Practice Take a moment to examine the key words of each of the following 8 mathematical practices… what do you notice?

13. 13 The Standards for Mathematical Practice 1.Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 2.Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 3.Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4.Model with mathematics. 5.Use appropriate tools strategically. 6.Attend to precision. 7.Look for and make use of structure. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

14. So how do we apply these mathematical practices in our classrooms? How does it look and sound? What are teachers doing? What are students doing?

15. Standard 1: Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need. Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, “Does this make sense?” They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems and identify correspondences between different approaches.

16. Essential CharacteristicsTeaching Methods -present mathematical challenges where students are asked to explain and clarify their thinking process Examples of What Students Will Be Doing -use multiple representations to explain their solution to a problem Non-examples of What Students Will Be Doing -solve computational, drill problems on worksheets Standard 1: Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them

17. Create a Frayer Model Poster Essential Characteristics Teaching Methods Examples of What Students Will Be Doing Non-examples of What Students Will Be Doing Standard for Mathematical Practice - Each table will be assigned one of the Mathematical Practice. - Create a Frayer Model Poster connecting student actions & teacher actions. - Take a Gallery Walk

18. Frayer Model Poster Gallery Walk Display your poster. Take a post-it and examine the posters to the right of your group’s poster. Look for evidence of student engagement in the math and write down your thoughts on post-its. Rotate to the right and continue until you have finished examining all posters. Be ready to share out your observations and “ahas.”

19. NLMUSD FOCUS Mathematical Practice 1: Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically Proficient Students: Explain the meaning of the problem to themselves Look for entry points Analyze givens, constraints, relationships, goals Make conjectures about the solution Plan a solution pathway Consider analogous problems Try special cases and similar forms Monitor and evaluate progress, and change course if necessary Check their answer to problems using a different method Continually ask themselves “Does this make sense?” Gather Information Make a plan Anticipate possible solutions Continuously evaluate progress Check results Question sense of solutions

20. NLMUSD FOCUS Mathematical Practice 3: Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others Use assumptions, definitions, and previous results Make a conjecture Build a logical progression of statements to explore the conjecture Analyze situations by breaking them into cases Recognize and use counter examples Justify conclusions Respond to arguments Communicate conclusions Distinguish correct logic Explain flaws Ask clarifying questions

21. Let’s do some math!

23. Rubric:

24. Reflection: Which mathematical practices were experienced in this task?

25. 3 Key Ideas: Please write on an index card, 3 key ideas on the mathematical practices. If you have any questions, please include those on the card as well.

26. LUNCH:

27. Mathematical Practice #1: Video of an 8th grade class engaging in mathematical practice #1 What evidence of mathematical practice #1 did you see in the video?

28. Critiquing Arguments Compare and contrast the two different strategies by Learner A and Learner B. What is similar? What are the differences? What questions do you have about these strategies? Which strategy do you think was most effective? Why?

29. Seventh graders critiquing and analyzing a student's work What did you notice between your experience and what you saw in the video? Mathematical Practice #3:

30. Review and Reflect on the Learning Experience: Turn and Talk: Reflect on your own work. What revisions, if any, would you make to explain your thinking more clearly? How might your experience as a learner in this lesson inform your own teaching? What connections can you make to previous Math PD?
