  1. Welcome to Grades K-2 Mathematics Content Sessions The focus is Algebraic Thinking. The goal is to help you understand this mathematics better to support your implementation of the K-8 Mathematics Standards. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 1

  2. Importance of Algebraic Thinking Algebraic thinking includes understanding and use of properties of numbers and relationships among numbers. Algebraic Thinking was chosen as the content focus because it lays the foundation for the learning of algebra in middle school and high school. It takes most students a long time to develop algebraic thinking, so it is important to begin this work in the primary grades. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 2

  3. Introduction of Facilitators <Insert Facilitator Names Here> Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 3

  4. Introduction of Participants In a minute or two: 1. Introduce yourself. 2. Describe an important moment in your life that contributed to your becoming a mathematics educator. 3. Describe a moment in which you hit a “mathematical wall” and had to struggle with learning. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 4

  5. Overview Some of the problems may be appropriate for students to complete, but other problems are intended ONLY for you as teachers. As you work the problems, think about how you might adapt them for the students you teach. Also, think about what Performance Expectations these problems might exemplify. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 5

  6. Problem Set 1 The focus of Problem Set 1 is understanding equality. You may work alone or with colleagues to solve these problems. When you are done, share your solutions with others. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 6

  7. Problem 1.1 What is the mathematics underlying the concept of equality? That is, what would you want students to say if you asked, “What does it mean for two things to be equal?” Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 7

  8. Problem 1.2 What do we want students to understand about the equal sign (=)? Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 8

  9. Problem 1.3 Carpenter, Franke, and Levi (2003, p. 9) report data (shown on the next slide) showing students’ responses to the question below. What number would you put in the box to make this a true number sentence? 8 + 4 =  + 5 What do you notice in the data? What conclusions can you draw? Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 9

  10. Problem 1.3 What number would you put in the box to make this a true number sentence? 8 + 4 =  + 5 What do you notice in the data? What conclusions can you draw? Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 10

  11. Problem 1.4 Write two or three learning targets for equality and the equal sign. Be as precise as possible; that is, what do you want students to know about the equal sign? Where in the K-8 Mathematics Standards do these ideas appear? Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 11

  12. Problem Set 2 The focus of Problem Set 2 is number relationships. You may work alone or with colleagues to solve these problems. When you are done, share your solutions with others. Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 12

  17. Reflection What did you learn (or re-learn) from solving these problems? Where in the K-8 Mathematics Standards do these ideas appear? The Standards uses the word, equation, instead of the phrase, number sentence. What is the difference in these two terms? Algebra: Grades K-2: slide 17
