  2. Welcome Feel free to ask questions throughout the presentation. How many participants brought their laptops? Who do we have in the audience?

  3. Core Math Tools Core Math Tools is a suite of Algebra & Functions, Geometry & Trigonometry, and Statistics & Probability software tools designed to support implementation of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. This material is based on work supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under Grant No. ESI-0137718, Grant No. DRL-1020312, and Grant No. DRL-1201917.

  4. Downloading Common Core Tools This is a free resource located on the NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) website and can be downloaded at the link below. Core Math Tools Home

  5. Lessons • Content Focus Reports • District Summary • 2012 FCAT 2.0 Data • Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) • Common Core State Standards

  6. The Technology Principle (NCTM, 2000) Technology is essential in teaching and learning mathematics; it influences the mathematics that is taught and enhances students' learning.

  7. The Mathematical Practices (CCSS) Model with mathematics. Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. Use appropriate tools strategically. Mathematically proficient students are able to use technological tools to explore and deepen their understanding of concepts. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Mathematically proficient students justify their conclusions, communicate them to others, and respond to the arguments of others.

  8. Grade 6

  9. Grade 7

  10. Grade 8

  11. Now it’s your turn… Go to the NCTM website and download the suite. Next, we will take some time to explore the apps. As a table group, be prepared to share one of the apps and how you think you could use it into your classroom.

  12. How have I shared it with my district? Elluminate session posted on our district’s Moodle site District Wide Training Day
