  1. COMMON CORE Math Joseph Baldwin & Pamela McHenry Adapted from slides from: Kelly Stadtmiller & Kristine Kaufman

  2. What is common core? • The Common Core Standards are national standards. • Common Core Curriculum has been provided from NYSED. • Students will Delve Deeper into Core Concepts. • The Standards are a Progression. • Assessments Will Change. • Focus on Practical Skills. VIDEO

  3. How can parents help? • Support your child with time to do math work at home. • Advise your child to stay after school with their math teacher as soon as they are struggling in class. • Attendance and effort are key. • Discuss why they are learning this math and how it will help them in high school and college. • Practice math facts regularly at home and when going to the store etc. • Work with your child on “gap skills” and retaining their fluencies from K-6.

  4. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 1: Focus: learn more about less • Students Must… • Spend more time on fewer concepts. *Jr High Class of 2020 • Parents Can… • Keep up on students work through School Tools and on-line calendars. Completing work on time when it is being practiced in class is key. • Students need to attend school with 90% attendance. • Support students and teachers by making students available to make up work and get after school help.

  5. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 2: Coherence: Skills across grade levels • Students Must… • Keep building on learning year after year • Parents Can… • Be aware of what your child struggled with last year and how that will affect learning this year • Practice the struggling skills at home

  6. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 3: Fluency • Students Must… • Continue to practice previous skills to become more efficient and retain the fluencies. • Parents Can… • Push children to know/ memorize basic math facts (times tables, decimals, fractions and integer work are a must at the secondary level) • Know all of the fluencies your child – 7th grade fluency is: solve simple equations AND 8th grade fluency is: systems of equations

  7. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 4: Deep Understanding • Students Must… • UNDERSTAND why the math works. • TALK about why the math works • PROVE that they know why and how the math works • Parents Can… • Notice whether your child REALLY knows why the answer is what it is – ask them “How do you know that is correct?” • Provide TIME for your child to work on math at home

  8. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 5: Application • Students Must… • Apply math in real world situations • Know which math to use for which situation without being prompted to do so. • Parents Can… • Involve your child in real-world math when it comes up • Ask your child to DO the math that comes up in your daily life

  9. 6 shifts in mathematics Mathematics Shift 6: Dual Intensity • Students Must… • Be able to use core math facts • Be able to explain the concept • Parents Can… • Make sure your child is PRACTICING the math facts he/she struggles with • Make sure your child is thinking about Math in real life

  10. 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.

  11. Skills progressions • Why not just “standard” algorithms? Rational Number System  Counting Numbers  The Real Number System  Fractions Complex Numbers  Grade: K 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 High School

  12. Math strategies tape diagrams • Really helps visualize word problems

  13. Helpful resources • Engage NY • Parks Math Site(Thank you Mr. Parks!) • IXL • Khan Academy Video on “flipping your classroom” • Learnzillion • Central Square School District Website

  14. Questions? thinking about?
