Common Core Math Professional Development Secondary Mathematics September 20, 2013
Essential Questions • What knowledge do I need about the Common Core Standards to be able to support teachers’ math instruction? • What questions do I ask and what do I look for in the classroom to support the teacher in implementing the Mathematical Practices? • How do I encourage a teacher to reflect on the interaction between the students and mathematics?
Learning Goals: Participants will: • Develop a deeper understanding of Common Core State Standards through the “unpacking” of standards. • Gain an understanding of Mathematics CCSS Curriculum Documents and Resources • Identify Elements within the Curriculum Documents that Relate to the FFT Domain 1 Components and Elements Identified by PGCPS • Use the FFT 5 Es' Lesson Planner to plan an engaging and rigorous mathematics lesson embedding UDL strategies…
How Did We Get Here? Unpacking the Common Core Curriculum Document through the Lesson Exemplar
What Does Implementing the Common Core Standards Mean for Instruction?
Content vs. PracticeStandards ContentStandards: • WHAT the students are learning Practice Standards: • HOW the students are learning Mathematical Concepts Behaviors
Implementing the Common Core ContentStandards requires… • Unpacking the standards and understanding what is contained within each. • Developing clear learning goals or objectives for MULTIPLE Standards. • Shifting students’ focus from “answer getting” to problem solving and critical thinking. • Connecting standards to prior knowledge of students. • Establishing the classroom environment as a community of learners.
Unpacking the Standards:Digging Deep into the Content Standards
Let’s Select a Content Standard 8.EE.4: Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimals and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size… 7.RP.3: Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. A.REI.10: Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line). 6.RP.3. Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems
Unpacking Questions: • What do students need to know? note the nouns in the standards • What do students need to do? note the verbs in the standards • To what degree do student need to perform? note the verbs (e.g., Blooms Taxonomies and Webb’s Depth of Knowledge (DOK))
Question:How can I make a lesson or task accessible for ALL students? Answer:Universal Design for Learning (UDL)
