Mrs. Morales’ classroom
Fall 2019 and Fall 2020
The students haven’t changed, but instead, the way we communicate has changed.

Teaching for Robust Understanding (TRU) framework:
Mathematics Assessment Project with UC Berkeley and Michigan State
What are the attributes of equitable and robust learning environments in which all students are supported in becoming knowledgeable, flexible and resourceful disciplinary thinkers?How can Tech-Infused Activities help address the 5 dimensions?
Purpose: The Academic need
The Five Dimensions of Mathematically Powerful Classrooms | |
The Mathematics | How do mathematical ideas from this unit/course develop in this lesson/lesson sequence? How can we create more meaningful connections? |
Cognitive Demand | What opportunities do students have to make their own sense of mathematical ideas? To work through authentic challenges? How can we create more opportunities? |
Equitable Access to Content | Who does and does not participate in the mathematical work of the class, and how? How can we create more opportunities for each student to participate meaningfully? |
Agency, Ownership and Identity | What opportunities do students have to see themselves and each other as powerful mathematical thinkers? How can we create more of these opportunities? |
Formative Assessment | What do we know about each student’s current mathematical thinking? How can we build on it? |
Purpose: The Academic need
Standards for Mathematical Practice:
The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe behaviors that all students will develop in Common Core Standards. These standards rest on important processes and proficiencies including problem solving, reasoning and proof, communication, representation and making connections. These practices will allow students to understand and apply mathematics with confidence.
Instructional Shifts
shift 1: From same instruction towards differentiated instruction
Shift 2: From students working individually towards a community of learners.
Shift 3: From mathematical authority coming from a teacher or textbook toward mathematical authority coming from sound student reasoning.
Shift 4: From teacher demonstrating “how to” toward teacher communicating “expectations” for learning.
Shift 5: From content taught in isolation to content connected to prior knowledge
Shift 6: From focus on correct answer to focus on explanation and understanding.
Shift 7: From mathematics made easy for students towards engaging in a productive struggle

I use the 3 step HyperDoc for daily lessons.
I use 7 step Hyperdocs for big picture concept and provide multiple resources to explore throughout the unit.
I post daily HyperDocs on Google Slides Calendar
