Where are we?
WCSD has had an elementary math and ELA coach for this past year. We focused on bringing back strategies and models for teachers from NTI.
Now that teachers are becoming more comfortable, we need to be proactive and show parents how to help their child and what we are doing in the classroom.

What are Mathematical Models?
Mathematical models are a set of concrete and pictorial models that students use repeatedly across grade levels.
Over time, students become familiar with these models and use them in more complex ways to solve problems.
Mathematical models become part of their tool box, which will help them have a quicker understanding of concepts as they are introduced.

What are Number Bonds?
Number bonds are a pictorial representation of part-part-whole relationships.

What are Number Bonds?
Smaller numbers (the parts) make up larger numbers (the whole)
part + part = wholewhole – part = part

PARENTS’ PERCEPTIONS OF COMMON CORE
• Social media influence• Confusion between the learning standards, assessments, and APPR
• The instructional shifts’ effect on HW• Any difficulty a child experiences would be blamed on the CCSS
![Page 47: Tips and Tools for Intensive Family Engagement Around the Common Core Reflect and plan on communication needs – both content and strategy; consider resources](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110321/56649ce05503460f949aa424/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
WHAT WE HAVE DONE DIRECTLY WITH PARENTS
• Empathize -- we are parents too.• Separated the issues
• Proved our focus remained on engaging children and meeting their needs – not the assessments
• No pressure from us with regard to the assessments• Kept the political discussion off the table
• Principal’s Teas• Principal’s Blog www.principalpollak.wordpress.com• Twitter• Webpage updates• Despite the technology---
Nothing was more effective than talking

STRUGGLE VS. FRUSTRATION
Struggle: being appropriately challenges. It may included behaviors such as frequent erasing, making errors, asking for help, MILD frustration accompanied by a desire to continue working. This type of struggle helps children learn how to persevere.
Frustration: is when a child may exhibit behaviors such as crying, wanting to give up after making an effort, yelling, short tempered, etc. When children reach this point, we encourage them to stop doing their homework.
We never want children to reach a point that hinders their love for learning. Parents are encouraged to communicate
with their child’s teacher if they experience this.
