IM 6-12 Math: Teach & Learn
August 1 @ 8:30 am - August 2 @ 3:30 pm
How can educators implement IM Math, a problem-based curriculum, building towards a world where all learners know, use, and enjoy mathematics? This two-day implementation event is designed to get educators ready to teach and learn within problem-based classrooms where student thinking is front and center. This series gives educators first-hand experience with and confidence in using the IM Math curriculum.
Learning Goals
- Identify opportunities for students to learn mathematical ideas through the experience of solving problems.
- Describe the structure of a lesson and the purpose of each component.
- Recognize teacher moves that support problem-based learning.
- Describe teacher moves that build a positive inclusive mathematical community.
- Describe an instructional routine.
- Describe how instructional routines create space for students to: play with mathematical ideas/ learn math by solving problems/ learn by collaborating with each other/ listen, respond to, and value each other’s thinking
- Prepare an instructional routine.
- Locate resources and opportunities to enhance access and challenge for all students.
- Make decisions about when and how to use the suggested strategies for English learners and students with disabilities.
- Recognize the value of co-constructing norms to build a positive inclusive mathematical community.
- Recognize the progression of understanding across the unit and how it is assessed.
- Begin to plan a unit and a lesson using the progression of understanding; using student thinking to drive learning.
- Trust the curriculum.
