Materials  for  this  presentaGon  are  supported  by  a  generous  grant  from  the  Ohio  Department  of  EducaGon  MathemaGcs-­‐Science  Partnership  

program.

Purpose  

•  We  will  explore  a  6th-­‐grade  task  promo7ng  modeling  with  mathema7cs  and  addressing  several  content  standards  found  in  the  6.SP  cluster.    

•  We  will  explore  how  modeling  with  mathema7cs  may  be  integrated  into  your  classroom  instruc7on.    

Page 4: WHAT%DO%YOU%WANT%ON%IT?% STATISTICS,%MODELING,%AND%PIZZA

Modeling  with  mathema7cs  •  Take  5  minutes  and  jot  down  notes  about  the  following  ques7ons  

related  to  the  Standard  for  Mathema7cal  Prac7ce  (SMP)  #4:  Modeling  with  Mathema7cs.    –  What  are  observable  behaviors  indica7ve  of  a  student  expressing  this  SMP?    –  What  are  observable  behaviors  indica7ve  of  a  teacher  fostering  this  SMP?    –  What  makes  a  modeling  with  mathema7cs  tasks  different  from  a  word  problem  

or  exercise?

Elements  of  SMP  4  •  A.    Encourage  student  use  of  developmentally  and  content-­‐

appropriate  mathema7cal  models  (e.g.,  variables,  equa7ons,  coordinate  grids)  and  foster  transla7ons  between  representa7ons  while  problem  solving.    

•  B.    Remind  students  that  a  mathema7cal  model  used  to  represent  a  problem’s  solu7on  is  ‘a  work  in  progress,’  and  may  be  revised  as  needed  

•  C.    Employ  problems  arising  from  everyday  life,  the  local  community,  society,  and  workplace  such  that  the  solu7on  is  a  model  to  reuse.      

•  NOTE:  Must  have  C  to  be  considered  a  task  embedded  within  instruc7on  promo7ng  modeling  with  mathema7cs.      

•  D.  Engage  students  in  oral  and  wriWen  communica7on  of  their  models  to  others.

Thoughts  for  integra7ng  SMP  4  into  your  instruc7on  

•  Prepare  students  to  collaborate  and  persevere.  •  Plan  for  mul7ple  days  of  instruc7on.    Allow  adequate  think  7me.  

•  Forma7vely  assess  students’  progress,  focusing  on  model  construc7on  (strategy)  and  not  necessarily  a  solu7on.  

•  What  problems  arise  from  the  world,  businesses,  or  local  communi7es?
