23. Lesson Planning • What is the math you want students to walk away with? • What standards are being worked on? • Workshop model: How will the math be presented? What will students be doing to experience the mathematics, What will be shared at the end of the lesson to push student understanding? • What strategies will be used? What misconceptions might students have? • How will students be grouped and receive access to the mathematics? • What questions will be asked throughout the lesson to move students closer to the instructional outcomes desired? • How will you assess student understanding? • Homework? Which aspects of CMP3 are helpful and important to address when lesson planning?
