Five-part series to address revised
math standards
South Dakota’s new mathematics content standards are
ready to roll! Instructors will have the opportunity to learn all about the
new standards during a series of five courses starting in early November. (See
schedule below.)
During this first stage of the math standards roll-out,
the focus will be the statistics and data analysis strand. Teachers will
examine the new standards in the context of:
1) best teacher practice,
2) engaging students in meaningful learning experiences,
and
3) providing strong support for all learners to reason
and think mathematically.
Participants will examine a framework for instructional
practice that aligns standards to instruction, curriculum and assessment, and
will engage in self-analysis and reflection to strengthen the quality and
effectiveness of their work.
Most of the instructors for this course are active,
experienced classroom teachers who were involved in the revision of the
standards.
