Premise of the Workshop
As the United States continues to compete in a global economy that demands
innovation, the U.S. education system must equip students with the four Cs:
1. critical thinking and problem solving,
2. communication,
3. collaboration, and
4. creativity and innovation.

Good Instruction(Keep it Simple…Keep it Real)
“We can, whenever and wherever we choose, successfully teach all children whose schooling is of interest to us. We already
know more than we need to do that. Whether or not we do it
must finally depend on how we feel about the fact that we
haven’t so far.” ~Ron Edmonds

truly understand
and own essential
knowledge, expand your exploration
from ‘what it is’ to also ‘what it is
NOT’.

Seth has 21 cents in his pocket.
Seth told Jesse that he would give Jesse the 21 cents if he could correctly guess what coins they were.
He would give Jesse 3 guesses. If Jesse did not guess correctly,
Jesse would have to give Seth 21 cents.
Should Jesse guess?
Conduct an experimental probability experiment to help explain your math thinking.

Does Jesse have a better than 50%
chance of guessing the right coins in 3
guesses?
Seth has 21¢ in his pocket.
Jesse has up to three chances to find what kind of coins Seth has in his
pocket.
Jesse should accept the challenge if his chances
are 50% or better.
I can find how many different coin combinations
make 21¢.

Common Core and College and Career Words
McREL researchers estimate 85% of achievement test scores are based on the vocabulary of the standards. Students from poverty, ELL students, and other at-risk students are particularly in need of learning these words
