M A T H Looking Back! Looking ForWard
M A T H Looking Back! Looking Forward
1996 Sunshine State Standards No logical progression of topics or complexity Repetition of Topics: Little Depth at each Topic Low Level of Cognitive Complexity No Clarity of Expectations

Moving Forward with the Mathematics Standards2006 - 2007FramersWriting Teams
Recommendationsfor Change • Decrease the number of topics per grade and limit repetition from year to year • Move from “covering” topics to teaching them in-depth for long term learning • Teach each topic at the concrete, representational, and abstract level • Improve connections within mathematics concepts
NCTM Curriculum Focal Points • Eliminates: • Mile wide, inch deep curriculum • Constant repetition • Emphasizes: • Automatic Recall of basic facts • Computational fluency • Knowledge and skills with understanding
NCTM Curriculum Focal Points • Contains: • 3 Big Ideas • 3 – 5 Supporting Ideas • Requires: • Mastery of content at each grade level • Teaching in depth
Bodies of Knowledge • A ~ Algebra • C ~ Calculus • D ~ Discrete Mathematics • F ~ Financial Literacy • G ~ Geometry • P ~ Probability • S ~ Statistics • T ~ Trigonometry

2008 Academic Plans www.learn www.leeschools.net 2007 Academic Plans
Transition Standard: Exponents, Scientific Notation, and Order of Operations. [4-1, 1-4, 1-5, supplement text] (6 days) Big Idea 1: Develop an understanding of and fluency with multiplication and division of fractions and decimals. (25 days)
Expected Outcomes • Increased Time for Practice • Greater Conceptual Understanding • Implementation of Higher-Level Questions • Consistent Use of the Concrete-Representational-Abstract Levels of Learning • Improved Critical Thinking and Problem Solving Skills • Greater Mastery of Content at every Grade
Expected Challenges • Teaching in Depth • Professional Development • Aligned Resources
