Learning Objectives

Teachers will …

1. (HS.AEE.C.8) Construct a viable argument to justify a method for solving equations or inequalities. (the concept of completing a square is also linked to the standard “complete the square in a quadratic expression to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function it defines”)
2. Develop (or reinforce) an understanding of lesson planning and worthwhile tasks

Course Standards

Teachers will …

1. Expand your mathematical understanding, your views regarding the nature of mathematics and mathematical activity
2. Deepen your understanding of how students learn mathematics and how a teacher can facilitate the mathematical growth and development of all students through creating an environment that supports individual and collaborative learning
3. Plan instruction that supports each student’s progress toward learning goals by drawing upon knowledge of content, curriculum, pedagogy, as well as knowledge of students and the community context

Math Lesson

Please do the following with your team:

​

1. Review your list of team norms

​

• Have each person get familiar with their role (see this chart --->)

​

• Work on the problems as follows follows for 20 minutes (original problem set):
1. Read the math problem you are working on aloud (all work on the same problem)
2. Each person independently works on task for 30-60 seconds
3. Each person shares their thinking about the problem

AND group members ask clarifying question, add on to,

or reason about the thinking shared

​

• (Once each person has shared) Prepare to write a collective solution for 5-73

Red tiles = negative value

= negative tile

= positive tile

Our group norms:

• Listening to understand, not to respond

​

• Mistakes are expected and accepted

​

• Give space, share the mic of life

​

• Accept feedback on different strategies

​

• Learn from each other

​

• Honor the wisdom of everyone

Team 3: Zion, Duy, Noemi

Team Name: ZND (Zone of Notable Development)

Math Lesson

Ask a clarifying question about the solution:“What do you mean by …?”, “Why do you think that?”, “Will you explain that again?”, “I have a question about …”, “I don’t quite understand. Can you explain it a little bit more?”, “How do you know your answer is right?”

​

Add on to the solution: “I would like to add …”

​

Reason about the solution: “I (dis)agree with your strategy because …”, “My strategy is like yours because …”, “My strategy is different from yours because …”

Break Time!

6:20 - 6:50pm

Back at 6:50pm

Reading Discussion

6:45 - 7:25pm

Culturally Relevant Pedagogy

Cultural Competence

(maintain students’ cultural integrity and use students’ culture as a vehicle for learning)

Critical/Socio-Political Consciousness

(develop students’ consciousness that allows them to critique cultural norms, values, mores, and institutions that produce and maintain social inequities)

Academic Achievement/Success

(develop students’ academic

skills and excellence)

Aspects of Student Learning

(Standards for Math Content

and Practices, Conceptual Understanding, Procedural Fluency)

“Effective” Teaching Practices

Develop/Select

Worthwhile Tasks

(Justify and Explain, Solve with Drawings, Relevant Contexts, Verify & Relate Strategies, Multiple Entry & Exit Points, High Cognitive Demand)

Academic Achievement & Success

Probe & Elicit Student Thinking

Lesson Planning

5 Practices (Anticipating, Monitoring, Selecting, Sequencing, Connecting

Promote Equitable Participation (drawing on student assets and smarts, status/power hierarchies)

Lesson Planning & Task Analysis Module

Please do the following with your partner(s):

​

1. Check in about Part 1 of the project and write any questions you have about the information shared in part 1

​

• Share your work for Part 2 (i.e., your lesson plan and task analysis document)

​

• Discuss/share …
1. how your lesson is relevant/tailored to the particular students in your class
2. How your lesson incorporates/reflects the criteria for lesson planning provided in our class
