Team Leaders/Administrators• Convince teachers to teach for understanding.
• Prepare parents that teachers may not provide all of the answers.
• Prepare parents that students will be grappling with challenging material.
• Note answers are important but not sufficient.

The standards were drafted by experts and teachers from across the country
and are designed to ensure students are prepared for today’s entry-level careers, freshman-level college courses, and workforce training programs.
The Common Core focuses on developing the critical-thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills students will need to be successful.

“Active learning practices have a more significant
impact on student performance than any other variable, including student
background and prior achievement.”

Instructional Model: Percent Sense
Calculate the following percents.
1. 55% of 40
2. 120% of 60
3. 40% of 8
4. 30% of 12
5. 10% of 184

1. 55% of 40 _______ 55% of 60
2. 120% of 60 _______ 60
3. 40% of 8 ________ 30 % of 8
4. 30% of 12 _______ 10% of 184
Choose one: <, =, or >.
What generalizations might be true about percents?
A: Predict which of >, =, or < would make the statement true and explain why you think so– without calculations.
B. Verify the accuracy of your partner’s prediction by doing the calculation.

The Curriculum:• Envisions a higher level of rigor based on a
deeper understanding of a pared down number of curricular objectives.
• Poses a challenge for teachers who must not only be fluent in content but also attain the particular pedagogy to be able to convey it to their students.
![Page 28: A Concept-Driven , Diverse Learning Environment to Address the Common Core Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681672c550346895ddbcdcd/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Emphasis is on:• Students doing mathematics.
• Students demonstrating thinking and learning.
• Students grappling with challenging tasks in a learning environment that will support equity in schools.
![Page 29: A Concept-Driven , Diverse Learning Environment to Address the Common Core Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681672c550346895ddbcdcd/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Students:• Engage in Discourse.
• articulate their own ideas
• Critique the reasoning of their peers……respectfully. • consider their peers’ perspectives
• Dialog to construct mathematical understandings.

Teachers & Students Use:• Probing Questions
• Show me another way …• How are these the same / different … • What would you do if …• Why did you … • What else could you have done …
• Productive Talk Moves• Revoicing - Repeating and asking for clarification• Repeating - Students restate someone else’s reasoning• Reasoning - Apply their reasoning to another’s reasoning• Adding on - Prompting for further participation• Waiting - “Take your time. We will wait.”

Challenges for Teachers• Broad range of abilities
• Mathematics• Literacy• Learning styles
• Teachers are being asked to teach in ways that they were never taught.
• Teach conceptual understanding • “Go deep” • Make connections
![Page 37: A Concept-Driven , Diverse Learning Environment to Address the Common Core Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681672c550346895ddbcdcd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
A mathematics teachershould be able to: • Unpack familiar math concepts to lead to clear
understanding.
• Require knowledge of an explanation of a concept.
• Understand methods and solutions different from his or her own.
