  2. Welcome!It became a great day when you joined us! • Please draw a card to find your team and take a handout. NESA 2013

  3. Strategies Used to Promote Student Discourse and Engagement in Math Classrooms NESA 2013

  4. Introductions • Goal of these two days is to have participants be actively involved using strategies to talk about mathematics and also use brain research to see how to enhance your math class. NESA 2013

  5. Eric Jensenauthor of Teaching with the Brain in Mind • Says “Purposeful Teaching Uses Energizers That Raise Heart Rate and Memory Chemicals.” • The faster your heart rate, the more memory chemicals are formed. NESA 2013

  6. Think of your favorite relaxing chair… NESA 2013

  15. Give One, Get One Let’s talk about norms in a student-centered Classroom. NESA 2013

  16. Red Light, Green Light • We are going to do this as a Dragon’s Tail. NESA 2013

  17. Walk and Talk NESA 2013

  18. Walk and Talk that you have about what we have been doing. Share some ideas and thoughts NESA 2013

  20. Laws of exponents NESA 2013

  21. Teammates Consult NESA 2013

  22. 40 Holes of Golf • The Hookenslice Corporation is having its annual charity fundraising event. In order to encourage donors to attend, the Hookenslice organizes a fun game called “40 Holes of Golf” and gives away prizes. Each team plays 40 holes of golf. There is a prize for the team that is consistently closest to the hole. NESA 2013

  23. 40 Holes of Golf • Your teacher has set up a “hole.” Your team will “swing” 40 pennies toward the “hole.” You will then represent your data on a graph and with numerical statistics, decide which team was the most consistently close to the hole. NESA 2013

  24. 40 Holes of Golf • Your Task: Your teacher will give you ten pennies. Have one team member stand 200 cm from the “hole.” That team member will toss all ten pennies, one at a time. No “do-overs” and no practice shots are allowed. Then record the distance from the center of each penny to the “hole” (to the nearest centimeter), even if the penny rolled far away. Repeat with different team members until 40 pennies have been tossed. Do not take turns each tossing one a penny at a time—each team member should toss all ten of their pennies in one turn. NESA 2013

  25. 40 Holes of Golf • Decide how you want to represent your data on your poster: dot plot, box plot, circle graph (“pie chart”), scatter plot, histogram, or bar graph. Create a poster. Leave room for the task below. • Decide the five most important facts you wish to report about your team’s golf shots and add them to your poster. • Your teacher will direct you on how to compare your team’s results with the other teams. • Which team was most consistently close to the hole? NESA 2013

  26. Traveling Salesman NESA 2013

  27. Kinesthetic Math works 3X better: Use Gestures In the study, 90% of students who had learned algebraic concepts using gestures remembered them 3 weeks later vs. 33% of speech only students. And 90% of students who had learned by gestures only with no speech at all recalled what they had been taught. (Cook, SW, et al, 2007) NESA 2013

  28. Make sure that you say Welcome Back to your team members. NESA 2013

  29. Make sure that you say Welcome Back to your team members. Changing teams-pack up NESA 2013

  30. Hot Potato NESA 2013

  31. Math Chat NESA 2013

  32. No Screen Shots Allowed! • You are emailing a friend the directions s/he will need to draw a specific diagram that must exactly match the shape (and size)  of the one you have. • Write a clear set of directions using words only. Your partner must draw the picture based on your directions. S/he may not use any tools such as a compass, ruler,  protractor or straight-edge. Use precise mathematical vocabulary to ensure her/his diagram will match yours. NESA 2013

  33. Reflection • Prompt: Write down three things you learned today. NESA 2013

  34. From Eric Jensen • Mind-Body Connection • “Activity not only fosters survival of our species, but it serves as a strategy for learning, emotional regulation, affiliation, resource acquisition and stress management.” NESA 2013

  35. NESA 2013

  36. Treasure Hunt NESA 2013

  37. Treasure Hunt • Today your teacher will give you several descriptive clues about different relations. For each clue, work with your team (or a partner) to find allthe possible matches among the relations posted around the classroom. • Remember that more than one relation may match each clue. Once you have decided which relation(s) match a given clue, defend your decision to your teacher and receive the next clue. Be sure to record your matches on paper. NESA 2013

  38. Treasure Hunt • Your goal is to find the match (or more than one match) for each of eight clues. Once you and your team (or partner) have finished, only one relation will be left unmatched. That relation is the treasure! NESA 2013

  39. Silent Debate NESA 2013

  40. Silent Debate Topic • Proof is an important topic to teach. NESA 2013

  41. Silent Debate Topic • Substitution is the best method for solving a system of equations. NESA 2013

  42. Reciprocal Teaching NESA 2013

  43. Closure • Feedback form • One more activity • Before we go…. NESA 2013

  44. Exit Slip • Something you learned today… • Something you would like to learn about…. NESA 2013

  45. Proximity Partner NESA 2013

  46. Day 2 NESA 2013

  47. Welcome!It’s a great day to learn! • Please draw a card to find your team. NESA 2013

  48. Team Roles • Shape A is the Facilitator • Shape B is the Recorder/Reporter • Shape C is the Resource Manager • Shape D is the Task Manager NESA 2013

  49. Silent Shapes • No Talking • No Taking • No Gestures • Each person must make a square NESA 2013

  50. The hard work involved in teambuilding is worth it and pays many benefits, including: • Social support for learning math • Success for more students • Opportunities to see and discuss multiple approaches • More meaningful learning by discussing and explaining • Better mastery of basic skills • Greater mathematical exploration and creativity NESA 2013
