3. MATHEMATICAL UNDERSTANDING • The math standards define what students should understand and be able to do in their study of mathematics. • Asking a student to understand something also means asking a teacher to assess whether the student has understood it. • What does mathematical understanding look like? One way for teachers to do that is to ask the student to justify, in a way that is appropriate to the student’s mathematical maturity, why a particular mathematical statement is true or where a mathematical rule comes from. • Mathematical understanding and procedural skill are equally important, and both are assessable using deep mathematical tasks.

4. CONNECTION TO THE COMMON CORE • MAJOR CONTENT: Students solve problems involving the Major Content for the grade/course with connections to the Common Core Standards. • SUPPORTING CONTENT: Students solve problems involving the Additional and Supporting Content for the grade/course with connections to the Common Core Standards. • EXPRESSING MATHEMATICAL REASONING: Students demonstrate grade/course-level mathematical reasoning by constructing viable arguments, critiquing the reasoning of others, and/or attending to precision when making mathematical statements.

5. CONNECTION TO THE COMMON CORE • MODELING / APPLICATION: Students solve real-world problems with a degree of difficulty appropriate to the grade/course. Students apply knowledge and skills articulated in the standards for the current grade/course by engaging in the practice of mathematical modeling. • ASSESSMENT: Students are assessed using the 8 math practices. Some of these math practices include: making sense of problems; reasoning abstractly and quantitatively; constructing arguments and critiquing the reasoning of others; modeling; using appropriate tools; and attending to precision.

6. COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2.0 The following are the main updates to the Envisions Math Program: • Content is organized into major, supporting, and additional clusters to ensure learning connections. • Students are provided with opportunities to document their thoughts digitally and in print. • Activities are designed to promote student inquiry, group work, and classroom conversation. • Problem-based learning or “Solve and Share” is the first step of every lesson, and provides opportunities for students to use critical thinking.

7. COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2.0 The following are the main updates to the Envisions Math Program: • Math practice and homework can be personalized to meet the needs of the students and provides the teacher with data on student understanding of various concepts. • Differentiation for student levels is accomplished through multiple modalities that include math tools, math games, problem solving, and “Today’s Challenge”. • Interdisciplinary connections between math and science are built into every topic.

8. COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2.0 • Physical copy of student text/workbook • Access to digital coursework for all areas of the program, including classwork, homework, and games through the Pearson Realize website • Physical and digital access to the teacher edition, including a test generator, Today’s Challenge, and intervention/remediation materials • Classroom anchor charts • Student manipulative kits • Activities for differentiated instruction

9. DAILY LESSONS Daily lessons typically include the following components: • Solve and Share • Visual Learning • Convince Me • Guided and Independent Practice • Math Centers / Differentiated Activities • Manipulative Kits / Math Tools • Teacher Data Reports
