  1. Grandparents’ Day Breakfast 2012 Mathematics

  2. Today’s students are expected to solve tomorrow’s problems.Our goal: To teach St. Francis students to be 21st century problem solvers which includes mastering: *Technological skills *Critical thinking skills *Collaborative problem solving skills

  3. Primary School • Concept of numbers • Counting • Discovering patterns • Reproducing patterns

  4. Primary School • Recognizing and naming shapes

  5. Primary School • Developing vocabulary to describe numbers and shapes • Developing vocabulary to designate order (before, after, etc.)

  6. Primary School • Comparing sizes • Completing puzzles (matching, orientation)

  7. Lower School First Grade: Our goal is to help students realize that math is part of daily life while they: • Learn critical problem-solving skills; • Focus on rapid recognition of addition and subtraction facts;

  8. Lower School First Grade (con’t): • Identify, extend and create various types of patterns; • Develop a strong sense of number relationships; • Apply skills in place value, geometry, measurement, time, money.

  9. Lower School Second Grade • Addition and subtraction facts to 18; • Single and multi-step word problems; • Problem solving strategies; • Place value to 1,000, regrouping; • Identifying geometrical shapes; • Solving problems involving measurement;

  10. Lower School Second Grade (con’t) • Telling time; • Recording different money amounts; and • Introduction to multiplication and division.

  11. Lower School Third Grade • Problem solving • Creating and reading data on graphs • Fractions! • Geometry • Multiplication facts • Division facts

  12. Lower School Fourth Grade • Fractions and Decimals (comparing, ordering, rounding, operations) • Multiplying 4-digit numbers • Long division • Geometry (angles, 3-D solids, transformations) • Measurement • Probability and Statistics

  13. Middle School Fifth Grade • Advanced work with Fractions and Decimals (comparing, ordering, rounding, operations) • Multiplying 4-digit numbers • Scientific Notation • Patterns, relations, functions • Introduce Algebraic Expressions • “Pi Day” Celebration

  14. Middle School 6th grade Pre-Algebra • Utilizing iPads to enhance instruction • Working collaboratively to solve problems • Proportionality • Plane Geometry • Probability and statistics/graphs

  15. Middle School 7th grade Introductory Algebra I • Making leap from concrete to abstract • Linear equations • 3 dimensional geometry • Basic Stock Market understanding • Project Based Learning: “What will $100,000,000 do to help the relief effort in Haiti?”

  16. Middle School 8th grade Intermediate Algebra I • Advanced problem solving; • TI-Nspire technology to enhance instruction; • Project Based Learning: “Personal Finance: Budgeting” • Preparation for high school placement exams

  17. Woolrich Grant:TI Technology In depth program at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire. Learned the in’s and out’s of the new TI-Nspire hardware and software. Workshops on Problem Solving methodology.

  18. TI-Nspire Navigator System Technology is in the students’ hands Instant Polling Immediate feedback for the student and the teacher Lessons are self- paced
