INTRODUCTION A. Dr. Nicki Newton B. Guests GOALS OF THIS WORKSHOP 1.Learn to Implement Guided Math Groups 2.Learn to Engage Students in Purposeful Practice through Math Workstations ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS FOR THIS WORKSHOP • How do guided math groups help us to differentiate instruction in meaningful ways so that we can reach all learners? • How do math workstations help reinforce skills in meaningful ways? WHAT IS GUIDED MATH? • One component of a math workshop • Students learn in small flexible groups based on their readiness level • Students practice with the teacher, with each other and then by themselves during the guided math lesson WHY DO GUIDED MATH GROUPS? “When a teacher tries to teach something to the entire class at the same time, chances are, one third of the kids already know it, one third will get it, and the remaining third won’t get it. So two thirds of the children are wasting their time.” ~Lillian Katz BENEFITS OF A GUIDED MATH GROUPS Teachers Students Targeted teaching/ Differentiation Targeted Standards based instruction On the spot error/ Misconception analysis Individual Attention Question Deeply Focus on specific Content and practices Opportunity to Speak & Listen about Mathematical Thinking Mathematical Disposition Levels Increase MATHEMATICAL POWER Comes from the belief that “I can do this…with practice I can do this” “If I just keep trying I can do this” “If I persevere, I can do this” Mathematical Power comes from the belief that math fluency is possible with practice.

NUMBER TALKS What is 8+6 Strategies Models LEARNING ENVIRONMENT KEY TO THE WHOLE OPERATION! CLASSROOM “SET UP” Understanding the Schedule-What are we doing today? When? Movement – Leaders are Key? Who’s on first? Cooperative Learning Components – Check Ins (How’s your group doing?) “The ultimate goal of mathematics instruction is to teach students to solve problems independently. The flexible nature of these components encourages the gradual release of responsibility.” Laney Sammons TURN AND TALK Talk to your shoulder buddy about how math is taught in your building (think about the differences in classrooms & grade levels). Are these components are part of the math instruction? ____ whole group instruction ____ mini-lesson ____ debrief ____ small guided math group ____ workstations ORGANIZATION Classroom Management: • Rules, Rewards and Consequences • Cooperative Learning GETTING STARTED 1. Forming Groups 2. Introducing Guided Math Groups to the Children 3.Classroom Management 4. Scheduling Students DATA-DRIVEN INSTRUCTION •Small group instruction is always based on data (Unit Assessments, student interviews or conferences, anecdotal notes, teacher observations, etc.) •Data will point to student misconceptions, error patterns, and levels of understanding (see Depth of Knowledge) HOW DO I SET UP THE GROUPS?

Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10. *See posters on blog OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1. Use strategies such as counting on; making ten (e.g., 8 + 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14); OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1. Decomposing a number leading to a ten (e.g., 13 – 4 = 13 – 3 – 1 = 10 – 1 = 9); OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1. And creating equivalent but easier or known sums (e.g., adding 6 + 7 by creating the known equivalent 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13). OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 2.OA.2. Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies.2 By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers. OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1.OA.7. Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and determine if equations involving addition and subtraction are true or false. OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1. For example, which of the following equations are true and which are false? 6 = 6, 7 = 8 – 1, 5 + 2 = 2 + 5, 4 + 1 = 5 + 2. 2. Prove It Papers! OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1.OA.8. Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation relating three whole numbers. OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING 1.OA.8. For example, determine the unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 + ? = 11, 5 = _ – 3, 6 + 6 = _.
