Deep Dive into Math Shift 3RIGOR Understanding Rigor in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics Using the 2013-2014 Course Descriptions
Shift #3: Rigor What is meant by rigor? The CCSSM require a balance of: • Solid conceptual understanding • Procedural skill and fluency • Application of skills in problem solving situations Pursuit of all three requires equal intensity in time, activities, and resources. RIGOR Fluency Application Conceptual Understanding
Today’s AgendaRigor in the CCSSM • Discuss Rigor and Find evidence of it within the 2013-2014 Florida Math Course Descriptions • Look specifically at fluency recommendations for Middle School • Determine what instructional shifts must occur as we increase the rigor

FluencyWhat is it? Skill in carrying out proceduresflexibly, accurately, efficiently and appropriately
Deep UnderstandingWhat is it? Comprehension of Mathematical Concepts
Rigorous Group Discussion • Share examples of relevant, real-world experiences you use to make important connections to the concepts you teach. • How do these applications relate back to both fluency and conceptual understanding?
One Instructional Model Assuming a 60 minute math class: 10 minutes: Fluency Activities, formative assessment 20 minutes: Conceptual Development/Practice 20 minutes: Application 10 minutes: Review

Florida 2013-2014 Math Instruction • Blended Instruction between the CCSS and a subset of NGSS (assessed by FCAT 2.0). • Grades 3-8 will be assessed by FCAT 2.0 • Algebra I and Geometry will be assessed by the Florida EOC Exams. Transitional Shifts • Increased rigor • Classroom assessment to include PARCC-like tasks
Rigor Addressed in the Standards • Conceptual Understanding: 6.NS.3.7 Understandordering and absolute value of rational numbers. • Procedural Skill and Fluency: 7.EE.2.4a …..Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently… • Application: 8.G.3.9 Know the formulas for the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres and use them to solvereal world and mathematical problems.
Rigor Requires Balance Conceptual Understanding + Procedural Skill and Fluency + Application = RIGOR
Evidence of Rigor in the Standards key words within the standards Conceptual Understanding Understand Recognize Interpret Describe Explain Use Relate Represent Identify Justify Solve Procedural Skill and Fluency Fluently Fluency Application Solve Word Problem Real World Problem Apply Mathematical Problem Model(ing)
Locating Evidence of Rigor in the Standards Activity In grade-level teams: • Read each standard in your course description • Look for and underline or highlight key words or phrases indicating RIGOR • Understand • Fluently • Solve Real World problems or word problems • Post your questions and comments to the Parking Lot

Group Discussion Where was the rigor? What strategies and structures are applicable to MS? What shifts need to happen in our classrooms?
