Lapeer Community Schools

This report discusses the adoption of math resources in Lapeer Community Schools, including the pilot implementation, evaluation of programs, and highlights and areas of concern for Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Kendall Hunt. The report concludes with a recommendation for Houghton Mifflin Harcourt based on its student-centered approach, collaborative grouping, and quality content aligned to the Common Core State Standards.

  1. Lapeer Community Schools LCS Board of Education May 4, 2017 Math Resource Adoption

  2. Where Have We Been? • Common Core State Standards • Standards for Mathematical Practices • K-5 Investigations 2014 • 6-8 CMP3 2015 • Algebra I: McDougal Littell 2005 • Algebra II: McDougal Littell 2004 • Geometry: Holt 2007

  3. Pilot Set Up • Standards for Mathematical Practice • Identified philosophical shifts needed for instruction • Determined research-based programs • Invited representatives • Pilot resources • Houghton Mifflin Hartcourt (HMH) • Kendall Hunt (Discovering)

  4. Pilot Implementation • Determined resource by semester • Provided monthly professional development • Follow-up support • Collaborative meetings • On-going program evaluation

  5. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 5 E Model 5 E’s • Provide the foundation of an instructional design that ensures students experience the rigor of Common Core and utilize the Mathematical Practices. • Balance concepts, fluency, problem solving, and application. • Allow students to process and make meaning of the math every day. • Engage • Explore • Explain • Elaborate • Evaluate

  6. KENDALL HUNT LISA Model LISA Framework for teaching content while cultivating the Mathematical Practices. Helps the teacher to organize what you want students to know and be able to do at the end of the lesson. • Launch • Investigate • Summarize • Apply

  7. Philosophical Shifts in Instruction • Teacher is facilitator of student learning • Multiple approaches to a problem with students explaining • Student collaboration • Real life application

  8. December and March Evaluation • Strengths and Weaknesses of the Programs • General program • Common Core State Standards • Standards for Mathematical Practices • Board program evaluation criteria

  9. Administrator observations Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - AGA Kendall Hunt -Discovering • Shifts in instruction • Collaborative Learning • Questioning • Student role in thinking • Slow pacing • Some teacher supplementing due to lack of alignment to CCSS • Less struggle to adapt to program • Traditional lessons with embedded investigations (teachers without training could skip) • Teachers were required to supplement due to lack of differentiated resources embedded

  10. Highlights of Programs Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - AGA Kendall Hunt Discovering • CC aligned • 5 E’s • Explore activities guides students through application • Covers all concepts within the Evaluate (homework section) • Quality content • Promotes high order of thinking • Encourages students to construct viable arguments • Resources for students and parents • User friendly text with good examples and video explanation • Online interactive student book • Technology long term plan • Spiral connections • CC aligned • Investigations • Structure and sequence • Real-World Computation • Book size

  11. Areas of Concern Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Kendall Hunt Discovering • Investigations do not cover all concepts • Resulting in teacher supplementing • Mini-lesson in paragraph form • Less natural group work • Lack of differentiation resources • Fill in the box • Pacing • Amount of copying without technology

  12. Recommendation • Houghton Mifflin Harcourt • Student centered and parent friendly • Collaborative grouping • Encourages students to develop own knowledge and construct viable arguments within Exploreactivities • Multiple approaches to a problem with students explaining  within Elaborate • Differentiation embedded • Consistent and detailed support resources for each step of the lesson. • Qualitycontent aligned to CCSS • Technology components • Subtotal 6 Year Purchase Amount: $149,661.95

  13. Implementation Plan • Vision • Philosophical shifts as previously identified • Skills • 2017-2018 PD • Purchase professional development (Title II) • Monthly meetings with teachers • Lesson Study and/or LAB (Title II) • Principal, peer and coach support

  14. Implementation Plan • Incentives • Celebrations on success with our philosophical shifts/benchmarks • Cooperative learning environment • Questioning and discussion techniques • Resources • HMH teacher and student resources • Graphing calculators and computer cart • On-line resources • Professional Development

  15. Implementation Plan • Action Plan • Year 1 and 2 goals • Focus on resource, environment, language, formative assessment, and lesson structure • KUD unit alignment • Incorporate technology
