EDU942 Rigor Padlet by Kelsey Richards https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m en-us 2023-09-22 15:17:13 UTC 2025-02-25 20:22:35 UTC hello@padlet.com Rigor is krichards66 https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2716532573 a deep understanding of foundational mathematical concepts while using application. To increase rigor within the classroom students must have those foundational math concepts mastered. Once foundational skills have been mastered, the teacher can increase rigor by having the students apply the skills rather than mimic the procedures. ]]> 2023-09-22 15:26:40 UTC https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2716532573 Rigor is not krichards66 https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2716534222 making things "harder". Rigor is not students doing identical problems with different numbers and following a set of procedures. While that is a good stepping stone, it is not rigor. Students need to not just 'copy' a teachers way to solve the problem but have true understanding behind the procedure.

While I teach middle school math now, the challenge is still the same. I teach in a Title 1 school and we have a wide variety of students ability across all my classes. To provide rigor and teach basic foundational skills in the same class is very challenging! ]]> 2023-09-22 15:29:04 UTC https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2716535918 Rigor is staciverge https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2727175322 setting high expectations for all students in the classroom and providing the support needed to achieve those expectations.

Creating rigorous activities and assessments to meet the diverse needs of all students can be challenging for me to keep up with. It is hard to find the time to find a balance between challenging advanced learners and providing necessary support for struggling students. The time it requires for careful planning and differentiation is not always available or an option. ]]> 2023-10-16 01:28:18 UTC https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/2747268482 Rigor is hlhooper2000_ https://padlet.com/krichards66/31yyuvqnceaoj7m/wish/3049018812 Giving students work that encourages them to think deeper and develop a deeper understanding of the work that they are given.

Many lessons taught in first grade are whole group.

A challenge I see if meeting the individual needs of each student.

I absolutely love teaching small groups and I'm proud of the tasks and activities I use at my table (transferring their knowledge in new ways-rigorous), but small groups can take up to an hour (4 groups of 6 students each rotating every 15 minutes). I struggle to keep the students away from the table thinking and working independently. It is a lot to ask a first grade to work independently for 45 minutes, even if their stations away from the table vary (technology, partner game, and independent work). Another challenge is the resources provided do not often include activities to teach at a deeper level. Limited planning time to analyze data and create lessons that challenge students is another challenge.

It does not mean students need to work faster or skip over the basics to get to the advanced things. I have a feeling if I asked my teachers to define rigor I would see people thinking it needed to be harder as opposed to more connections and application.

As an instructional coach, it is proven challenging to get secondary math teachers to change strategies and show flexibility in the process of how math happens. It will require relooking at lessons and differentiating, which will take time. It is also a challenge to fit all the content into the time they have before the testing occurs, and adding anything else (they claim) doesn't allow them to get through the material.

Now that they are here in 4th grade, they have a lot of trouble focusing and staying on task. Working in groups presents its own challenges this year that I do not usually have to work around. SO I find it very hard to work with small groups at their own levels.

"Doing math" is the procedural knowledge and necessary for success. Rigor is the conceptual and the application: can you explain the why? Can you decide what to do?

Even though the Common Core articles all state that standards were eliminated, I do believe that more or at least more complicated standards were added to 8th-grade math. I have enough time to challenge the average 8th-grade student, but there is not enough time to meet the rigor needs of struggling and high-achieving students.

If I could not have more time, more support would help me. If I had a co-teacher or a part time co-teacher, one of us could assist struggling students while the other worked with high-achieving students.

If I really sat down and planned out different things for each of those students I feel I would then need to have individual lessons for each of them also helping them along the way.
