Who do we have in the room?
Research suggests that there’s an exceptionally strong relationship between communal learning, collegiality, and collective action (key aspects of professional learning communities) and changes in teacher practice and increases in student learning.

Illustrative Mathematics is a discerning community of educators dedicated to the coherent learning of mathematics. We collaborate at illustrativemathematics.org, sharing carefully vetted resources for teachers and teacher leaders to give our children an understanding of mathematics and skill in using it. We provide expert guidance to states and districts working to improve mathematics education.
To illustrate standards with impeccably crafted tasks, videos, lesson plans, and curriculum modules.
To be the premier source of freely available online mathematics content for teachers, teacher leaders, assessment developers, curriculum writers, and teacher educators.
To be a discerning professional community that creates content and deploys expertise in multiple ways.
To engage individuals and small groups, with rare and needed expertise, who are currently isolated in pockets across the country.
To provide a space for teachers to share across classrooms and help each other grow in teaching our children mathematics.
Goals of Illustrative Mathematics
The Structure of the Common Core

Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on whole numbers.4.NF.3Understand a fraction a/b with a > 1 as a sum of fractions 1/b. a. Understand addition and subtraction of fractions as joining and separating parts referring to the same whole.b. Decompose a fraction into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in more than one way, recording each decomposition by an equation. Justify decompositions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model. Examples: 3/8 = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 ; 3/8 = 1/8 + 2/8 ; 2 1/8 = 1 + 1 + 1/8 = 8/8 + 8/8 + 1/8.

What does understanding look like in Algebra?
“There is a world of difference between a student who can summon a mnemonic device to expand a product such as (a + b)(x + y) and a student who can explain where the mnemonic comes from.”
“The student who can explain the rule understands mathematics, and may have a better chance to succeed at a less familiar task such as expanding (a + b + c)(x + y)”

Standards for Mathematical Practice
Mathematically proficient students• look closely to discern a pattern or structure• step back for an overview and shift perspective• see complicated things as single objects, or as
composed of several objects

Algebra: Seeing Structure in Expressions
• Interpret the structure of expressions• Write expressions in equivalent forms to solve
problems
What does it look like to “see structure in expressions”?
Interpret the structure of expressionsA-SSE.1 Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context.a. Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and coefficients.b. Interpret complicated expressions by viewing one or more of their parts as a single entity. For example, interpret P(1+r)n as the product of P and a factor not depending on P.

Delivery TrucksA company uses two different sized trucks to deliver sand. The first truck can transport x cubic yards, and the second y cubic yards. The first truck makes S trips to a job site, while the second makes T trips. What do the following expressions represent in practical terms?
a. S+Tb. x+yc. xS + yTd. xS+yT
S+T
If they do this in high school…
what needs to come before that high school work?
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.6.EE.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). For example, the expressions y + y + y and 3y are equivalent because they name the same number regardless of which number y stands for.
Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions.7.EE.2 Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, a + 0.05a = 1.05a means that “increase by 5%” is the same as “multiply by 1.05.”

Compute fluently with multi-digit numbers and find common factors and multiples.6.NS.4 Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).

Finding factors for a purpose
Nina was finding multiples of 6. She said,
18 and 42 are both multiples of 6, and when I add them, I also get a multiple of 6: 18+42=60.
Explain to Nina why adding two multiples of 6 will always result in another multiple of 6.
