FALs 2.0: Spanning Math Content and Concepts Geoff Krall | New Tech Math Coach
Common “I likes…” • Pre-Assessment • Guiding Questions • Variety of Scaffolding Tasks • Student Analysis of sample work • Card activities and manipulatives • Pushes the inquiry • Pre-assessment • Emphasis on questioning techniques • Emphasis on improving own work • Provided a “break” for students to “swim” in pure mathematics for a while • Provided a place for teachers to “take stock” of student learning
Working Together • Discuss your solution to the Pre-Assessment with the 2-3 people around you. ====================================================== • Take turns to match and place cards. • When you match two cards: • Place cards next to each other so that everyone can see. • Explain carefully how you came to your decision. • Your partner should either explain that reasoning again in his or her own words, or challenge the reasons you gave. • You both need to be able to agree on and explain the placement of every card. • If you cannot find a card to match, then make one up yourself.
Explore time & Parking Lot • Take a few minutes to locate and explore the FALs. • Try to skim through ones in your content area. • Look for applicable collaborative activities that you might be able to utilize in other content areas. • If you have any questions, please place them on the parking lot.
