Establish mathematics goals to focus learning 2. Implement tasks that promote reasoning and problem solving 3. Use and connect mathematical representations 4. Facilitate meaningful discourse 5. Pose purposeful questions 6. Build fluency from conceptual understanding 7. Support productive struggle in learning mathematics 8. Elicit and use evidence of student thinking Moody’s Mega Math Challenge Free internet-based math challenge/competition open to high school juniors and seniors Scholarships of $1,000 to $20,000 Last year’s challenge: LUNCH CRUNCH: CAN DELICIOUS BE AFFORDABLE AND NUTRITIOUS? This problem asks teams to determine a student's caloric requirements based on his or her individual attributes, assess the percentage of U.S. students who meet the definition of an "average" student, and develop a budget-friendly lunch plan to satisfy nutritional standards and students' palates. Standards for Mathematical Practice Describe the behaviors and habits of mind that are exhibited by mathematically proficient students. These K-12 Mathematical Practice Standards are just as important as the Content Standards Do you see them embedded in daily instruction in the mathematics classroom? WI Guiding Principles for Teaching and Learning What do they look like in mathematics classrooms? Pivotal Understandings for High School Mathematics Core Values lay the Foundation Pivotal Understandings provide the cross-cutting of “Big Ideas” that bring coherence to students’ experiences in HS math Equivalence Rate of Change Predictability Comparisons Balanced Assessment System Info-graphic on purpose and type of assessments Changes to Graduation Requirements …at least 3 credits of Mathematics; that could include Computer Science that includes Algorithmic Problem Solving, Applications Development, Computational Design and Intelligence, Computational Thinking, and Management Information Systems One CTE course Effective for students graduating 2016-2017 school year Wisconsin Connected Educator List of online resources and discussion communities available for Wisconsin Educators. http://math.dpi.wi.gov/ Share with High School Mathematics Dept.
