Here is the initiatory of all of v posts wrapping upwards what I learned during the 2nd together with concluding twelvemonth of the Oklahoma Geometry together with Algebra Project (OGAP).
First off, I desire to give thank you lot the people who made this amazing sense possible. The workshop was coordinated past times MD Jennifer Bryan from Oklahoma Christian University together with MD Martha Parrott from Northeastern State University - Broken Arrow. The workshop was facilitated past times Linda Hall together with Martha Wissler. Linda together with Martha are both retired math teachers from Edmond Public Schools, together with they are phenomenal! I create got learned SO much from them.
The initiatory of all activeness nosotros were given was to sort 12 statements. We weren't given whatsoever to a greater extent than guidance than that. Each grouping was given the same 12 statements. Here's how my grouping sorted them:
Statements almost what teachers should produce inward the classroom. Strategies that were at a lower-level on Bloom's Taxonomy were placed below strategies that were at a higher-level.
Statements almost what teachers should live on doing inward the classroom. Same ordering of thinking skills.
And, statements almost what math instruction inward full general should live on similar alongside the same structuring equally above.
I sadly didn't create got a moving painting of the other groups' groupings, but they were vastly dissimilar from ours. It was interesting to run across how differently the same laid of statements could live on grouped.
It turns out that these statements were taken from Principles to Actions, a recent publication of NCTM. In Principles to Actions, these statements were sorted into 2 columns alongside the headers "Productive Beliefs" together with "Unproductive Beliefs." As business office of the workshop, nosotros received a re-create of Principles to Actions: Ensuring Mathematical Success for All
Summer Reading List done at i time since I proceed adding novel books to read!

One of the reasons I'm looking frontwards to reading it is that the chair of the writing squad was Steve Leinwand, the writer of Accessible Mathematics: Ten Instructional Shifts That Raise Student Achievement
This wasn't the alone resources nosotros received. Going to i of these workshops is kinda similar Christmas! We each picked a dependent area to specialize inward this year. Last year, I chose Algebra 1. This year, I decided to switch my focus to Algebra 2. Basically, nosotros create got to collect information from i of our classes. We give that shape a pre-test together with post-test likewise equally having them brand concept maps at the outset together with halt of the schoolhouse year. The shape nosotros focus on is the shape nosotros volition collect our information from.
We received a novel textbook from Big Ideas Math for the dependent area nosotros chose to specialize in. I haven't had a ton of fourth dimension to peruse the text yet, but the initiatory of all matter I noticed was how much thinner the textbook was from a normal textbook. This work of books was written specifically for Common Core. I'm hoping I volition live on able to line out merely about neat problems to run alongside my students from this text!

Probably the best resources nosotros got during the calendar week was a 3-inch binder packed alongside activities!

Several of the activities nosotros did during the calendar week were from The Charles A. Dana Center. Last year, nosotros received a cd of Algebra Formative Assessments Through The Common Core. This year, nosotros received Geometry Formative Assessments Through The Common Core. Each cd has pdfs of 3-4 dissimilar books on it!

We joked that the side past times side mass nosotros received would live on considered contraband inward our schools now. Even though Oklahoma has pulled out of Common Core, I nevertheless institute my reading inward The Common Core Mathematics Standards: Transforming Practice Through Team Leadership
The Common Core Mathematics Standards |
One resources nosotros didn't run a lot of this calendar week was our re-create of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. Actually, I used it 3 times during the week. But, all 3 of those times involved me turning to the reference canvas to hold off upwards a formula! Next year, I am definitely going to brand a reference canvas for my students to proceed inward their interactive notebooks!
CCSS Standards |
Now that you're jealous over all the awesome goodies I got, I'm going to portion the resources nosotros were given on Day 1. Enjoy!
The Camel Problem
The initiatory of all work nosotros worked on inward our groups was the camel crossing the desert problem. I had merely seen this work the previous calendar week inward the re-create of Discovering Advanced Algebra

The version nosotros attempted reads equally follows:
A camel is sitting past times a stack of 3000 bananas at the border of a K mile-wide desert. He is going to move across the desert, carrying equally many bananas equally he tin dismiss to the other side. He tin dismiss behave upwards to K bananas at whatsoever given time, but he heats i banana at every mile. What is the maximum let out of bananas the camel tin dismiss carry across the desert? how does he produce it? Be prepared to acquaint your solution to the class. (Hint: the camel doesn't create got to acquire all the agency across the desert inward i trip.)
My grouping got correct to piece of work together with figured out a agency to carry 500 bananas across the desert on our initiatory of all try. Linda looked at our solution together with told us that nosotros could produce ameliorate than that. We tried, but always subsequent strategy ended upwards transporting less than 500 bananas! One grouping was able to brand it at the solution during the 45 or together with hence minutes nosotros were given to piece of work on the problem. The residuum of us had to create got the work habitation for homework. At home, I tried to solve the work past times employing simpler cases. But, I never did brand the breakthrough I needed.
The side past times side day, they provided us the solution. I kinda wishing I had left the room during the explanation together with hence I could create got figured it out for myself. Oh well... There are enough of other math problems out at that topographic point for me to solve!

Overwhelmed yet? This is merely Day 1 of an AMAZING workshop!
