Day+3

=Theme: Solidify Understanding=

8:30 - Responses to four point evaluation of the previous day.

8:45 - 5 Practices of Productive Mathematics Discussions

 * Do the grade level task you wrote, Be sure the fraction or EE content purpose is evident. Be sure to do the whole launch, explore, discuss for all three teaching cycles (Develop, Solidify, Practice). Take your time and be sure that participants understand both the mathematics and the purpose of each teaching cycle.
 * Place posters on the wall with each of the 5 practices written at the top.
 * Have the participants help you place elements of the task lesson on the appropriate poster.
 * Have the participants find the article on orchestrating mathematical discourse in their packets. Divide them into five groups. Have them read the introduction silently, then assign each practice to one group. [[file:Orchestrating+Discourse.pdf]].
 * Use the Powerpoint for the World Cafe Protocol
 * Use the World Cafe protocol to share the information
 * [[file:World Cafe with Orchestrating Discourse Article.doc]]
 * Ask the participants if they would like to change the placement of any element on the posters


 * Then hand out the Teaching Cycle with 5 Practices handout. [[file:Teaching Cycle with 5 Practices.pdf]]


 * Finish this discussion before you go to break.

Lunch

12:45 or 1:00: Review the CMI Cycle - Use the developed cookie dough handouts for the review:



2:00 - Break

2:15 - We Do
Then, start the process of putting together a grade level learning cycle together. The first step is to learn to determine whether a task is good, bad, or fixable. TEACHERS DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TO WRITE THEIR OWN TASKS!

Rating Tasks and determining whether they are good, bad, fixable, or unusable. Also look for Develop, Solidify, or Practice tasks.

This is a we do, you do activity. Rate one task together and then have them rate at least two tasks from the ccak52012.wikispaces.com or 6th Grade CA website that fit in the cluster they have chosen for their learning cycle using the task review rubric: Once they have completed the task review have them begin to structure their learning cycle using the CMI framework.

3:15 - Four point evaluation for today: What worked for you? What didn't work for you? What do you need more work on? What can we do better tomorrow?

3:30 - Dismiss.
