  2. Reflecting on Practice Day #9 Park City Mathematics Institute

  3. TIMSS Video • 8th Grade classroom • Students are working on graphing five different lines on a co-ordinate grid We’re going to watch it first without sound. Park City Mathematics Institute

  4. Discuss at your table • What do you notice? • What caught your attention? Park City Mathematics Institute

  5. Seeing things again • We're going to watch the video with sound • Note the questions the teacher asks • Think about the role of questioning in his class Park City Mathematics Institute

  6. Video with sound • Does your impression of the class change now that you’ve heard the sound? Park City Mathematics Institute

  7. Discuss together What were some of the questions he asked? What was the role of questioning in this class? Park City Mathematics Institute

  8. Shifting gears… Setting the stage for the next video… What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “solving equations” ? Park City Mathematics Institute

  9. Next video • Nick Branca from San Diego State University • PD for Middle School Teachers • Just finished the same brainstorming activity • Note the questions the teacher asks • Think about the role of questioning in his class Park City Mathematics Institute

  10. Discussion What were some of the questions he asked? What was the role of questioning in this class? Park City Mathematics Institute

  11. Closing Discussion Branca started by asking what people thought about when they heard solving an equation. Then he used that list to move to core concepts students needed to know before they could successfully engage in solving equations. • If you were going to try this with students, what would you have to think about before hand? Park City Mathematics Institute

  12. Feedback • On the handout • What are you thinking about questioning (or anything else) that could change your practice next year? • How can we help in our remaining time together? Park City Mathematics Institute
