October 5, 2010Laura ChamblessDr. Monica Hartman

Agenda

1. Introduction to Common Core State Standards

2. Digging into your end of year assessment data

3. Deeper look at number sense units4. Multiplication/Division Practice System5. What you are going to focus on back in class?

2nd Year In Program/Intro Write on a sticky note

One thing you noticed about teaching Math Expressions so far this year.

Share with someone that is not in your building. Stand back to back when you are done sharing.Partner with shortest hair reports out to group.

Common Core Standards

Mathematics Document– Mathematical Practices– Grade level instructional focus– Grade level overview w/ Mathematical Practices– Grade level standards

Looking at Data1. Look over end of year Benchmark Assessment– Find questions which students are at advance level (star)

CELEBRATE!– Find questions which students are at basic level (B)– Find questions which students are at below basic level (BB)

2. Look at the End of Year Assessment - Response Frequency Report (Item Analysis) to find GLCE.

3. Use the CC Aligned to GLCE document to look at Basic (B) and Below Basic (BB) items. Find where it is taught in your MX book.

Practice• Use Teaching Notes for background

information on problem type.

• Complete Understanding Story Problems A– First by yourself– When elbow partner is done- compare answers– Complete B-D the same way

• Use teacher manual to help (unit 3)
