• Students DO Math• Builds on prior
knowledge• Accommodates a
variety of levels and learning styles
• Highlights the mathematical target – without solving the Explore!
• Focuses the learning for students, teachers, and parents
• Clarifies, refines, and applies learning to new situations
Math Makes Sense
Distinctives • Teaching
through Problem Solving

Learning – PD, readings
Big Ideas- Develop your understanding through discussion and application
Develop Essential Questions
Leadership: (Teacher to Teacher)Share your understanding of the Big Ideas (Smart Notebook)
Instruction: (Teacher to Students)Design explore activities to engage and support student learning

Complete Smart Notebook (Teacher Resource):
• In lab/board room, finish creating the Notebook (a tool to share understanding of the big ideas)
• Write script for notebook lesson: with your slides in front of you talk about the big ideas in your concept area
• Once the script is completed, return to board room to compete voice recording
Our primary goal is to complete the big ideas resource for teachers today!

Teaching students to expect, and excel at, paint-by-number class work, robs students of a skill more important than solving problems: formulating them.

Math Class Needs a Makeover

Computation
- We tend to forget how to do it
Easy to relearn if strong grounding in
reasoning
Reasoning
Applications to math problems in the world around us
-hard to teach- needed to solve
problems

Math Reasoning• The ability
to apply process to problems in the real world
![Page 11: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
5 symptoms that you are doing math reasoning wrong
1. Lack of initiative- don’t self start
2. Lack of perseverance
3. Lack of retention- need to re- explain and re-teach
4. Aversion to word problems- 99% of students
5. Eagerness for formula
![Page 12: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Are we shaping neural pathways to expect
easy problems?
...creating
impatience with
irresolution?
![Page 13: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• What real-life problem have you ever come across where all the information is given?
![Page 14: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
We are doing the thinking!4 layers that create impatient problem
solving: 1. Visual2. Mathematical Structure- grid, labels,
measurements3. Sub-Steps4. Question
• Traditionally, textbooks, not students do the thinking and pave the path to success.
![Page 15: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Process to Rebuild Problems 1. Eliminate given information
2. Start with the Visual- use pictures/video and ask the question
3. Encourage discussion and debate- know when you have baited the hook
4. Invite students to Identify what would make it easier or what is needed to solve
the problem
5. Then offer the structure: Labels and measurement
The math serves the conversation the conversation does not serve the math!
6. Let students create the sub-steps if needed
![Page 16: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Supporting Patient Problem-solvers• Every student is on a even playing field• Refining what math is and what a problem is• Increases student engagement and discussion• Use multi-media• Encourage student intuition• Ask the shortest question you can• Let students build the problem- because
Einstein said so• Be less helpful

How Do We Teach Math Reasoning?
NCTM Professional Standards suggests that the students’ role is to “initiate problems and questions; make conjectures and present solutions” (p. 45).
![Page 18: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Math is the vocabulary for your own intuition!
When students make public conjectures and reason with others about mathematics, ideas and knowledge are developedcollaboratively, revealing mathematics as constructed by human beings within an intellectual community.
(NCTM 1991, 34)

Exploring Angles
![Page 21: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What is an angle?
All these have angles.
![Page 22: Middle Years Math on the Move!](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052402/56815fdc550346895dcee358/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What is an angle? Does a ball have an angle?
Does a rainbow have an angle?

Define Angle
• Write your own definition of what is an angle. • Share and discuss in triad.

Golf Irons and the
Shot
• Golf clubs are made to hit the ball different distances. Irons have different loft angles--the angle between the face of the blade and the shaft--to hit the ball different distances. The loft of a typical pitching wedge is about 45 degrees, but this can vary with different manufacturers.
Irons have different loft angles to hit different distances.

Board passhttp://www.jes-hockey.com
Learn to use the Boards and the Glass:The boards and the glass are your friends, not only when practicing but in game situations. Try to learn how to make passes off the boards and incorporate these moves into your skills. Try to pass the puck off the boards and then pick it up on the other side of the defender
