1. This website serves as a
resource page for teaching math lessons.
It is based on the mathematics assessment program (MAP), which aims to
bring to life the common core standards in a way that helps teachers and
students turn to aspirations for achieving goals in the classroom.
2. I would use it because it has
many math lessons and classroom challenges listed, which is a great
resource. It is used for helping
students connect all the math they have learned so that they can gain a deeper
understanding of practical situations and rich problems in math. It is used time to time throughout the
year. This program describes the
various elements of what students should know and be able to do. It even has assessments where children
can be tested and standards are shown.
This would be a great resource as a first year teacher.
3. Yes, because it has plenty of
resources and shows you what students should be performing at and gives you the
assessments. The assessments and
lessons are designed to reveal and develop students conceptions and
misconceptions. These ideas that
are being taught or tested show us how they connect to their knowledge and
thought process. It has many tools
and it not based on one type of student.
4. I thought it was interesting
that it includes MAP and CCSSM.
That means it includes classroom challenges that are focused on major
mathematical practices. It dwells
on concept development and problem solving lessons so it covers a lot of
info. I found it interesting
because it dwells on BOTH of them and not just concept development or problem
solving lessons.
5. I would recommend it because it
provides many resources and helps you guide your classroom and not just one
type of student. It dwells on concept
development as well as lessons so you are able to find help in both of those
areas. I think it is very detailed
and organized and could easily be implemented into the classroom.
My group and I thought this website was helpful but very informative and detailed. It took me awhile to read the website and to understand what the purpose of this website was. It is based on assessing students and teaching math lessons. One thing I really liked was that it dwells on concept development and problem solving lessons. If you have the time to read about it, do so, but beware that is not visually appealing. It also dwells on whiteboards, worksheets, paper, and analyzing work but it does not involve technology. If you are wanting to find an easily accessible simple lesson plan, this one is not for you. I much prefer the websites I mentioned under Nelms Nuggets on the right side of the homepage. Go take a look!
