  1. Effectively Diagnose and Address Gaps in Student Content Knowledge Brooke Monroe eLearning Specialist & Regional Manager 3P Learning / Mathletics www.3plearning.com

  2. Implementation of CCSS for Math has created gaps in student mastery of foundational math concepts • Knowledge gaps make it difficult for: • Students to meet expectations of the CCSS • Teachers to determine what range of content knowledge exists in any given classroom

  3. Relationship between Ohio ACS and CCSS • K-8 Mathematics Comparative analysis • Summarizes the relationship between grades K-8 of the 2001 Ohio ACS for Mathematics and the 2010 CCSS (retrieved from education.ohio.gov) • Structure and organization of standards has changed • Formats of 2001 and 2010 standards are not parallel • Clear connections, yet significant differences

  4. Ohio Academic Content Standards - Fractions • Grade 3 • OH.3-4.N.B Recognize and generate equivalent representations for whole numbers, fractions and decimals. • OH.3-4.N.C Represent commonly used fractions and mixed numbers using words and physical models. • OH.3-4.N.D Use models, points of reference and equivalent forms of commonly used fractions to judge the size of fractions and to compare, describe and order them.

  5. When matching to CCSS Grade 4 Number & Operations-Fractions, most of the Ohio ACS come from Grade 5 • Students entering Grade 4 will not have the background to work effectively in Grade 4

  6. CCSS Grade 4 Cluster Ohio ACS OH.3-4.N.M Add and subtract commonly used fractions with like denominators and decimals, using models and paper and pencil. OH.5-7.N.I Use a variety of strategies, including proportional reasoning, to estimate, compute, solve and explain solutions to problems involving integers, fractions, decimals and percents. • Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on whole numbers.

  7. CCSS Grade 4 Cluster Ohio ACS OH.3-4.N.B Recognize and generate equivalent representations for whole numbers, fractions and decimals. OH.5-7.N.BCompare, order and convert among fractions, decimals and percents. OH.5-7.N.HUse and analyze the steps in standard and non-standard algorithms for computing with fractions, decimals and integers. OH.5-7.N.I Use a variety of strategies, including proportional reasoning, to estimate, compute, solve and explain solutions to problems involving integers, fractions, decimals and percents. • Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions

  8. CCSS Grade 4 Number and Operations-Fractions • Comparison • Differences in the depth and difficulty • http://www.corestandards.org/Math/Content/4/NF

  9. Focused Diagnostic Tests Helps teachers pinpoint which students have not learned the foundational math concepts they will need to be successful math students

  10. Computer-Based Diagnostic Testing By using computer-based diagnostic assessments within a program such as Mathletics, teachers can easily use the results and progressions built into the CCSS to teach the missing foundational skills

  11. Mathletics • Assessment Tool • Can assign standard benchmarking tests to your students • Reports provide useful diagnostic and analytic information • Key resource for tracking student improvement when used at regular intervals throughout the year • Enables you to easily identify areas of difficulty and give your students effective feedback

  12. Mathletics • CCSS Pre-requisite Courses • Custom courses aligned to each CCSS domain for review of prior year’s prerequisite understandings • Domain review is built on CCSS progressions and clusters to provide adaptive practice necessary to fill knowledge gaps and to reach grade level proficiency • Will help to reduce teacher workload and provide ease of personalized learning pathways

  13. Mathletics Using the MathleticsAssessment Tool paired with targeted adaptive practice is an effective method for quickly closing knowledge gaps. Let’s take a look… www.mathletics.com Video Tutorials Training Guides
