Math CAMPPP 2011 Algebraic Thinking Session #4 Nottawasaga Working with Struggling Students CLIPS 1
Algebraic Thinking ~Session #4 Learning Goals: • Expose traditional and personal practices for working with struggling students • Discuss different ways that students struggle • Explore CLIPS tools/activities as a possible tool for working with struggling students 2
Minds On: Features of CLIPS(see poster at back of room) • Focusing Attention • Interaction with Dynamic Representations to Construct Understanding • Multiple opportunities for practice • Modelling with Representative examples • Immediate levelled corrective feedback
Action: Exploring Different Representations Tool To access CLIPS • www.mathclips.ca or b) Math Camppp memory stick Copy the CLIPS folder to your desktop. CLICK on index.html to start up CLIPS. Allow ActiveX controls if warning message appears.
Action – Exploring CLIPS (50 min) SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES: • Explore the Uber Tool in more depth • Explore the Integer and Fraction Tools • Explore the Integers CLIP • Explore the Linear Growing Pattern CLIP • Explore Fraction CLIP • Explore the Trig CLIP
Your Mission • Explore • Post to the Cool CLIPS Collection at CAMPPP • Course • Which Clip/Segment/Tool • Helping Struggling Students CLIPS Feature (see back wall) • How can it be implemented (e.g., whole class, small group at lunch, Student Success, Homework, Resource Room etc.) • These will be typed and posted on the Wiki
Consolidate: Reflection • How might you use the dynamic CLIPS tools and/or activities with your students? • How might you incorporate some of the “features” of CLIPS into your instructional practice? Features: focussing attention, dynamic representations, multiple opportunities for practice, modelling with representative examples, immediate levelled corrective feedback
Consolidate: Exit Card Consider your experiences over the past 2.5 days in Algebraic Thinking: List on the paper provided: 3 things that you learned about algebraic thinking 2 things that you have learned about responding to students 1 thing that you are still wondering about 11
