| OBJECTIVES |
EXAMPLES |
| Objective A: Learners will develop common
understandings of mathematical ideas. |
- Recognize and use the vocabulary and symbols of mathematics
- Use the skills of reading (including use of inference and logical
transition), listening, and viewing to interpret and evaluate
mathematical ideas.
- Discuss mathematical situations and make conjectures and
convincing arguments.
|
| Objective B: Learners will draw logical
conclusions about problem situations. |
- Use physical materials, pictures, graphs, budgets, and diagrams
to illustrate mathematical ideas.
- Use models, known facts, and relationships to explain thinking.
- Explain answers and solution processes.
- Follow a logical argument and judge its validity.
- Construct a logical argument and judge its validity.
|
| Objective C: Learners will link conceptual and
procedural knowledge. |
- Apply relationships between operations such as
addition/subtraction inverse, multiplication/division inverse,
multiplication as repeated additions, division as repeated
subtractions.
- Recognize different representations of the same concept as
equivalent, e.g., horizontal and vertical addition, 20'/18" =
240"/18" = 20'/1.5'.
|
| Objective D: Learners will recognize
relationships among different topics. |
- Whole numbers, decimals, fractions, and percents.
- Geometry and algebra, particularly in graphing.
