Using Rich Mathematical Resources in the Curriculum Engine to Support the 5 Practices.
The 5 practices model is a process of planning and instruction that teachers can implement for promoting productive discussion in classrooms. The curriculum engine can support this model by providing high-quality math resources.
Technology enhanced resources to improve student achievement in the classroom.
Technology is impacting high-stakes testing across the country. Teachers need access to a variety of technology-enhanced items for students to experience in the classroom. The curriculum engine
provides access to many technology-enhanced items which includes Desmos graphing item types.
This session will explore:
Using high-quality resources in the Curriculum Engine to explore connections between the SMPs and the content standards.
Providing students with effective learning experiences.
The participants will examine mathematics not as a list of disconnected topics, tricks, or mnemonics, but as a coherent body of knowledge made up of interconnected concepts.
To ensure instructional coherence across and within courses, the Curriculum Engine provides students with effective learning experiences.
Not only will the Curriculum Engine provide high-quality resources that are aligned to standards and skills, but it will provide prerequisite information and a coherence check for courses.
Support mastery of math concepts for ALL Learners.
This presentation will focus on exploring what types of instructional supports are needed for different student learning groups. These groups of students include struggling readers, students with learning disabilities, and ELL students.
In the CE the participants will find and have the opportunity to work through math tasks, OER’s, and interactive practice.
Understanding the language of mathematics.
The strategies presented here will help students navigate the language of mathematics so that they can better understand math concepts while reading, speaking, listening and writing.
The Curriculum Engine provides an opportunity to customize, edit and design curriculum. You can apply literacy research-based instructional strategies when utilizing these resources.
These strategies can be effective with ALL learners with a focus on struggling readers, students with disabilities and students where English is a second language.
Organizing mathematical content.
The strategies presented here will help students learn to use visual representations to help organize their thoughts so they can focus on the math.
The Curriculum Engine provides an opportunity to customize, edit and design curriculum. You can apply graphic organizing instructional strategies when utilizing these resources. These graphic organizing strategies will help students learn to organize content and build conceptual understanding.
These strategies can be effective with ALL learners with a focus on struggling readers, students with disabilities and students where English is a second language.
Exploring modeling with mathematics.
Understanding mathematical content.
The strategies presented here will help students learn to decode and extract meaning from text based mathematical problems.
The Curriculum Engine provides an opportunity to customize, edit and design curriculum. You can apply annotation based instructional strategies when utilizing these resources. These strategies will help students learn to identify and focus on key aspects of a text based math problem while ignoring nonessential information.
These strategies can be effective with ALL learners with a focus on struggling readers, students with disabilities and students where English is a second language.
Using speaking and listening skills with mathematics.
The strategies presented here will help students become comfortable speaking and listening in a mathematical context resulting in developing capability in their mathematical skills.
The Curriculum Engine provides an opportunity to customize, edit and design curriculum. You can apply
mathematical discourse instructional strategies when utilizing these resources. These strategies promote speaking and listening in a math-focused literacy context.
These strategies can be effective with ALL learners with a focus on struggling readers, students with disabilities and students where English is a second language.
