School Team Session

OutcomesMembers of school teams will:

1. Activate prior knowledge of the Standards for Mathematical Practice.

2. Discover connections between the Standards for Mathematical Practice and the Literacy Standards .

Day 1

Morning

Pre-assessment

True or False1. There are 8 Standards for Mathematical

Practice (SMP).

TRUE  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.

 

Pre-assessment

True or False2.The SMP describe teacher

behavior during class. FALSE The Standards for Mathematical Practice

describe the behaviors of the Mathematically Proficient student.

Pre-assessment

True or False

3. The SMP apply in PreK – High School classrooms.

TRUEThe Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of expertise that mathematics educators at all levels should seek to develop in their students.

Pre-assessment

True or False4. The SMP can be seen ONLY in the

math classroom.

FALSE The proficiencies described in the SMP can and should be nurtured in all content areas.

Pre-assessment

True or False5. The Literacy Standards and the SMP will be assessed.

TRUE• The Standards for Mathematical Practice will be assessed in

conjunction with the content standards for a particular course/grade.

• The Literacy Standards will be assessed in conjunction with ELA standards.

Pre-assessment

True or False6. Student behaviors described in the

SMP are similar to student behaviors described in the Literacy Standards.

TRUEThe following activity will provide the opportunity to see the similarities between the two sets of standards.

Opening Activity3x3 Puzzle

OutcomeThe participants will activate prior knowledge of the Standards for Mathematical Practice.

3x3 Puzzle

TaskArrange puzzle pieces into a 3x3 array by matching appropriate statements.

Note: There are distractors.

Web Activity

Outcome The participants will develop a better understanding of the Standards for Mathematical Practice and the Literacy Standards.

OverviewLiteracy Standards

• In PreK -5 the Literacy Standards are embedded in the Content Standards.

• In grades 6-12 the Literacy Standards are contained in separate documents.

• Are divided into 4 clusters.

• Describe increasingly sophisticated behaviors by

grade or grade band.• Will be measured in the ELA assessments.

Core Activity-Web Step 1Write the assigned Standard for Mathematical Practice in the center.

Math Practice #1:Make sense of problems and persevere in

solving them.

Step 2Add statements that summarize the student behaviors described in the practice .

Step 3Connect to behaviors described in the Literacy Standards

Integration of Knowledge & Ideas (Grade 3) #7: Use information gained from illustrations (e.g., maps, photographs) and the

words in a text to demonstrate understanding of the text (e.g., where, when, why, and how key events occur).

Key Ideas & Details (Grade 5) #1:Quote accurately from a text when

explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing

inferences from the text.

SUMMARY

Please rotate to your next session.

The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as we continue to live.
