#NCTMP2A: Elicit and use evidence of student thinking

Course Goals:

At the end of the semester, participants should be able to say:

  • I can exercise mathematical flexibility to show what I know in more than one way.
  • I can make sense of mathematical tasks and persevere in solving them.
  • I can work within NCTM’s Eight Mathematical Teaching Practices for strengthening the teaching and learning of mathematics.

Elicit and use evidence of student thinking. 

Effective teaching of mathematics uses evidence of student thinking to assess progress toward mathematical understanding and to adjust instruction continually in ways that support and extend learning.

Principles to Actions: Ensuring Mathematical Success for All

Session Goals:

At the end of this session, participants should be able to say:

  • I can make sense of tasks and persevere in solving them.
  • I can elicit and use evidence of student thinking.
  • I can construct a viable argument and critique the reasoning of others.
    • Show your thinking so a reader understands without asking your questions.

#NCTMP2A: Elicit and use evidence of student thinking

Back by popular demand, twelve #TrinityLearns faculty will gather each week in the fall to deepen our understanding of NCTM’s teaching practices and NCTM’S Standards for Mathematical Practices.

Course Goals:

At the end of the semester, participants should be able to say:

  • I can exercise mathematical flexibility to show what I know in more than one way.
  • I can make sense of mathematical tasks and persevere in solving them.
  • I can work within NCTM’s Eight Mathematical Teaching Practices for strengthening the teaching and learning of mathematics.

Questions for 2017-18

September 13 Meeting

 

3:30 5 min Establishing Intent, Purpose, Norm Setting

  • How is the year going? What are you looking
    forward to this year?
    Did you survive Hurricane Irma?
3:35 5 min Goals for Math Committee

  • To learn more math in order to pass it on to our
    grade level teams
  • To scale our learning to our teams
  • To deeply understand the Standards for
    Mathematical Practices
  • To deepen, differentiate, and extend learning
    for the students in our classroom
    (Instructional Core goal)

Action Steps

  1. Participate in or recruit others to participate in
    Embolden Your Inner Mathematician
  2. Study and participate in discussions around
    Standards of Mathematical Practices, including
    reading and implementing ideas in     Beyond Answers
    by Mike Flynn
  3. Refine and rework learning progressions for
    eachgrading period (and calibrate with
    “next door neighbor”grades) to deeply
    understand the essentials to learn, to
    improve actionable formative assessment
    techniques and strategies, and to know our
    learners as mathematicians.
3:40 5 min Number Splats – Steve Wyborney (@SteveWyborney)
3:45 30 min Planning for Splats
4:15 15 min Talking Points from Elizabeth Statmore (@chessemonkeysf)
4:25 5 min Closure and Reflection (I liked (and why), I wish, I wonder)
