  2. CESA 7 Approach to the Math Curriculum • Organization of Standards into “Sense-Making” Categories • Meaningful chunking of learning into Inquiry Modules • Emphasis on the intent of the standards • Recognition of the importance of the standards for Mathematics Practices • Emphasis on cognitively complex mathematics tasks to achieve standards • Resource neutral companion for local work

  3. CommonCore Curriculum TM common core state standards companion The MATHEMATICS Curriculum CompanionStructure for Each Grade Level (K-12) Inquiry Module Module Title Module Overview with Critical Focus Areas Module Essential Questions Sense-Making Concepts Standards Sense-Making Strategies Standards Sense-Making Application/ Modeling Standards Expanded Standards Unpacking Sample Module Math Task (s) Performance Task Template & Criteria for High Cognitive Demand Tasks Sequenced Lesson Plan Focal Points with Mathematical Practices Math Sample Lesson Plan Templates 4 to 8 Sequenced Modules per grade level & conceptual category

  5. Companion Layout

  6. Module Elements

  7. Inquiry Modules “Logical groupings of common core mathematics standards based on how they connect for instruction with elements that aid in organizing assessment and instruction from the beginning of the school year until the end. Inquiry modules are carefully sequenced vertically from grade to grade to ensure learning progressions.” -Companion Glossary

  8. Module Overview A description of: • the focus of the mathematics for the module. • the concepts, strategies and applications that reside in the module. • the depth of the mathematics in the module. • what students should know and be able to do.

  9. Module Overview

  10. Essential Questions Essential questions are open-ended questions that guide the teacher’s instruction toward enduring understandings.

  11. Essential Questions

  12. Critical Focus Areas Critical focus areas described in the Common Core Standards define all of the mathematics for each grade level (K-8) and conceptual category (9-12).

  13. Critical Focus Areas

  14. Companion Elements • Categorized Standards unpacking for emphasis (related standards, notations & student language for discourse • Sense-Making Concepts Standards • Sense-Making Strategies Standards • Sense-Making Modeling/Application Standards • A place for Other Content Standards • Sample Mathematics Tasks • Sample Lesson Sequence with Focal Points & Math Practices • Sample Lesson Plan Template • Local tools for assessments and resources

  15. Navigation: Click on Common Core Standards

  16. Sense Making Categories

  17. Sense Making Categories • Sense-Making Concepts • The standards that are grouped in this category are foundational standards important in the conceptual development of major mathematical ideas. Sense-Making Strategies The standards that are grouped in this category are mathematical strategies that should be used after investigation and development of concepts has occurred. Sense-Making Applications & Modeling The standards that are grouped in this category are usually mastered after the mathematical idea has been conceptually developed. Students need to recall, model, and apply their mathematical background knowledge in order to connect mathematical ideas. Application and modeling can be independent of sense-making concepts and strategies.

  18. Navigation: Click on a Standard

  19. Districts will see: • Three additional fields for Curriculum Companion tm • Local District Standardsinsighttm fields are copied

  20. Other Standards – Local Option

  21. Mathematics Tasks Questions, problems, scenarios or prompts that demand engagement in concepts and that stimulate students to make purposeful connections to meaning or relevant mathematical ideas.

  22. Navigation: Click on Mathematics Tasks then Sample Math Tasks

  23. Example of Mathematical Task

  24. Navigation: Click on Other Math Tasks

  25. Navigation: Click on Edit in the Other Math Tasks Box

  27. Student Focal Points Student Focal Point. Student Focal Points provide an explicit purpose for an instructional lesson that will lead to learning the standards within the inquiry module. Student Focal Points are provided in a sequence for instruction within each module.

  28. Student Focal Points

  29. Instructional Plan Options A Storage System for: • Model lessons (template provided) • Local Plans • Imported Plans • Shared Plans Including all documents and web links

  30. Navigation: Click on View Lesson Plan Templates

  31. Assessments and Resources • Ability to import local assessments • Aligned to SBAC (Formative, Summative and Interim/Benchmark) when available • Ability to align instructional materials to modules Including all documents and web links
