  1. Mathematics Progress Report Shelton School District 2009-2010

  2. History • New 6-12 Math Curriculum Adopted 2008 • Connected Math Project (CMP) II Grades 6,7 • CME Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II Grades 8-12 • Prentice Hall Pre-Algebra Grade 8

  3. History (Continued) • 6-12 Instructional Approach • All Students Participate in Accelerated Learning Program (Algebra in 8th Grade) • Complex Instruction – Structures that Facilitate High Level Mathematical Thinking • Heterogeneous Groups • Roles and Norms • Attention to Competence and Status Issues • Questioning Strategies that Facilitate Understanding

  4. History (Continued) • K-5 Math Curriculum Updated 2005 • Growing With Mathematics • K-5 Instructional Approach • Focus on Concepts, Problem-Solving, and Computational Fluency

  5. History (Continued) • State Requirements • Grade Level Expectations Revised 2004, 2006, and 2008 • New “Performance Expectations” Assessed Beginning 2010 (Grades 3-8) • New MSP and HSPE Assessments • End of Course Exams for Algebra and Geometry Beginning 2011

  6. Professional Development • Grades 6-12

  7. Professional Development • Grades 6-12 (Continued)

  8. Professional Development • Grades 6-12 (Continued)

  9. Professional Development • Grades K-5

  10. District Expectations • Grades 6-12 • Use Complex Instruction in All Math Classes • Use “Structures” Daily (Roles and Norms) • Do a Groupworthy Task Each Unit • Principals Visible in Classes, Supporting Implementation

  11. District Expectations • Grades K-5 • Lessons Aligned to New Standards • Use “Strings” to Teach Flexible Mathematical Thinking • Use “Math Congress” to Facilitate Mathematical Discourse • Principals Visible in Classes, Supporting Implementation

  12. How’s It Working? • Building Reports – Positives/Challenges • Elementary (Karla Knudsen, Linda Hicks-Green, Sharee Waite) • OMS (Lisa Olin) • OBJH (Kristey Perigo) • CHOICE (Sharon Hobson) • SHS (Reva Fowler)

  13. Works in Progress • Continue Research-Based Practices • Align Curriculum and Develop Common Course Assessments Through PLCs • Use Assessment Information to Guide Instruction (e.g. easyCBM) • Incorporate Strategies for Building Academic Vocabulary into Math Classes • Identify and Purchase Research-Based Math Intervention Materials for RTI

  14. Works In Progress • Continued • Develop School-based Systems for Effectively Delivering Interventions (RTI) • Raise Expectations for All Students: Annually Increase the Number of Students Taking Algebra in 8th Grade • Ensure District Curriculum Aligns to Emerging Standards and Assessments

  15. In Closing… • Comments by Lisa • Any questions?
