Help! I have searched out the challenge worksheet (low engagement) which is very similar to the homework/remembering sheet that is available...AND I have tried several times the differentiated kit cards to challenge my hi-flyers, which has proved that they need more of me to succeed with the cards, therefore, is not freeing up my teacher time to help the at risk with their daily work.  I am struggling with finding something that works...thoughts?

Question in Regards to the MCA Prep Books

# data[].attributes.body
We had been given samples of the MCA Prep Book with the old copyright of the Math Expressions Curriculum last year when we were reviewing the curriculum for a potential district adoption. Does the new 2018 Copyright of Math Expressions have MCA Prep Books for Grades 1-5?  If so, do we have access to these resources? Thank you!

Add Adaptive Learning Products-> Turn on Personal Math Trainer
Include Product-> Click on all the following boxes Drawing TOols, Homework and Remembering, iTools, Math Activity Center, my Notebook, Parents Place, Student Activity BOok, and Osmo if you have it
THEN CLICK SAVE

Then click assign students->click on students you have and add them into the class and then click done

Personal Math Trainer->Select Drop-down menu and you will see Assessments, Lesson-Level Homework, Quick Quizzes, Standards-Based Assignments
Fluency-> Select Drop-down menu and you will see Fluency Practice and Fluency Check

Assign a quiz, identifying mastery level. Students will be directed to workflow space. This piece is for the few top and few intervention kids...only...
Example: Set mastery level. The mastery level will send students to either (Adaptive Workflow Settings: Adaptive Workforce: Yes:)
Workflow Type: Intervention Enrichment is above level for those students on level who want/need to be taken further.
Personal Study Plan: Assign up to four weeks for kids who need further practice

Students do not need to be assigned work they can go into their library->Math Activity Center->select items to practice however as a teacher you cannot get a report from these assignments.

Prerequisite test
Beginning, Middle, and End year tests are used for progress only.
After each lesson, there is a Formative Assessment or Check for Understanding
Quick Quizzes test each main idea.
Chapter Review: not a test
Assessment Guide: Test Form A (mimics high stakes tests) Test Form B (fill in the dots)
Performance Task: Taking and applying knowledge; is in-depth; has a rubric on how to grade.

Videos are available in each grade level under the Professional Learning Library->Select Grade Level ->Classroom Content and Strategy

Building a Math Talk Community are at the beginning of each unit. It explains how to utilize math talk during the unit. Great resource of how to have students elicit math talks.

In the back of your teacher's manual in the teacher resources there are vocabulary activities you can use for math talks.

Malk Talk in Action is found in your lessons as a WHOLE GROUP piece. This is to use to see how things are going and a sample for you to use.

During math talks teacher are walking around a listening to partners or small groups. The teachers are the facilitator of math talks. Teacher questions students thinking as they walk around the classroom.

There are three phases in the Inquiry Learning Path for Math- Students can cycle through these phases

# data[].attributes.subject
There are three phases in the Inquiry Learning Path for Math- Students can cycle through these phases

# data[].attributes.body
Phase 3- Fluency (formal math methods)
Phase 2- Understanding Fluency and Growing Fluency (research-based mathematically desirable and accessible methods)
Phase 1- Exploring and Growing Understanding (student-generated methods)

In between each phase includes Math Sense-Making, Math Drawing, Math Explaining, Math Structure

The learning path is from Phase 1 and up however students may need to bump back or forward based on their knowledge base

Bridging for teachers and students by coherent learning supports-in the classroom and possibily out (interventions)

From training- grade levels need to be consistent with grading assessments. Decisions should be made as a grade-level team how to score assessments.

I feel most in my grade level (including myself) have started to better understand the lesson components, but are now starting to dabble with the online components.  How often should we be using Poggles and other options online?

Yes, we can address Math Talk more in depth. There are some videos in various grade levels where it is modeled. I can do a demo lesson.

Can we generate a list of required assessments for Math Expressions for the school year to be completed by all staff and grade levels? Who will collect data after each assessment (building RtI)? Looking for consistency and a plan we can bring back to staff during our December 1 (1 hour) and January 26th (2 hours) Collaboration time.  Those are Trainees training staff days. :)Thank you!

Is it possible to print reteach pages all at once for an entire unit? The only thing we can find is to print lesson by lesson.
