Build Your Own Process for the Week (for deepening content knowledge) • Overarching Goals 1. Teach a variety of math software/technology to model and explore mathematics 2. Draw connections among a variety of content areas to highlight integrated nature of math 3. Central focus on various representations and aspects of functions
Build Your Own Content Strands 1. Modeling with Data • Understand shape of data via context in modeling • Data collection • Use consecutive differences to identify polynomial functions • Use matrices to solve systems of equations arising in fitting polynomials • Learn regressions and justify their use
Build Your Own Content Strands 2.Recursion • Modeling • Exponential Growth • Number theory identities
Build Your Own Content Strands 3.Parametric Equations • Linear motion • Rates of change in modeling • Circular motion • Connection Cartesian (implicit) equations
Build Your Own Content Strands 4.Geometry • Constructions and modeling • Connections with algebra
Build Your Own What CCSSM Content Standards did we address this week?
Standards for Mathematical Practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically. • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Build Your Own • Decide on your big goal(s) • Content Standard • Practice Standard • What are the concepts you want students to learn? • How do want to use technology to facilitate learning? • What will the students take away from the lesson?
