  1. Updates to PYP Mathematics at GWA Allen McInnis

  2. Where we were August 2016 - GWA formed a PYP Mathematics Curriculum Committee to review and make recommendations for the Curriculum

  3. September 2016 • The committee met for the first time and we began looking at both what we were doing well and what needed improvement. • Continuum • Connections to external assessment – i.e. MAP tests • Units • Consistent delivery • Concept based activities linked to our curriculum.

  4. This was the old version.

  5. Where we are • Updated Look & Content.

  6. External Assessments.

  7. CAT 4

  8. CAT 4

  9. Normative DAta

  10. Children grow and learn at different rates for different reasons. • Consider the following students. No single assessment can tell the story of their journey.

  11. Student progress over timeGrade 4

  12. Student progress over timeGrade 6

  13. Student progress over timeGrade 8

  14. GWA is an IB PYP school

  15. An example of what an activity in mathematics might look like.

  16. Where we are going • Math units that continue to allow concepts to be explored and support the development of the essential elements of the PYP • Supported by a continuum of standards and benchmarks that will link to our external assessments to inform further curriculum development • A more consistent deliver of what is already a very strong mathematics program
