Mapping the Math Brain is a segment from the 2020 school division Math PD (02-04-2020),

GOALS OF THIS SEGMENT:
- Introduce a brain-based educational model of math by identifying three basic neural codes which format numbers in the brain.
- Explore the role of three primary neurocognitive processes, with respect to math problem-solving ability.
- Provide an attached summary of:
- Neurological processes with associated math skills
- Math implications related to cognitive processing challenges
- Suggested interventions

"The Martian" or Other Movie 21st Century Skills Activity

So, let me ask you the question: How often do we let students “work the problem” in our schools and classrooms?

Do we give students a chance to figure it out on their own or in a small group? Do we challenge them to solve a challenge in a fixed amount of time? Do we let them struggle and fail to the point where they have to work the problem and find a solution?

With PL - Now every student was “working their own problem” and stumbling, struggling, and fighting to find a solution of how to learn, make, create, and launch an idea out into the world.

“The Martian” is a great example of working the problem. He has to use a multitude of 21st Century Skills, along with his team, and the people back on Earth to work together to survive and get him home.

Math Circles Grades 5/6 University of Waterloo
Rating
0.0 stars

"Named in honour of the mathematician Emmy Noether, this free online project aims to encourage the participation of both teachers and students at the Grade 5 and 6 level in solving problems for enjoyment and satisfaction. The 'circle' symbolizes an inclusive and collaborative setting, open to a variety of ability levels, wherein mutual support enhances individual investigations.

Each Circle is a set of six problems, plus hints, suggestions, and solutions. The problems can be used individually, or as a set, as time permits. While group work is a major focus, most problems are also accessible to students who prefer to work on their own."

This project is best completed prior to reading the novel, Mistasiniy:  Buffalo Rubbing Stone by Mary Harelkin Bishop to avoid influence of references in the text.  The original size of the Lake Diefenbaker mistasiniy is introduced in the novel's preface, while the size of the mistasiniy on Danny’s family’s land is mentioned on page 109 as part of Rose’s diary.   Students will work individually on a math inquiry problem challenging students to solve questions using estimation, approximations, geometry, analytical thinking, creative thinking, communication, and technology skills. Cross-curricular connections can be made with ELA, Social Studies, Science, and Arts Education. More information on bison/buffalo rubbing stones

(Nota: Esta es una traducción de un recurso educativo abierto creado por el Departamento de Educación del Estado de Nueva York (NYSED) como parte del proyecto "EngageNY" en 2013. Aunque el recurso real fue traducido por personas, la siguiente descripción se tradujo del inglés original usando Google Translate para ayudar a los usuarios potenciales a decidir si se adapta a sus necesidades y puede contener errores gramaticales o lingüísticos. La descripción original en inglés también se proporciona a continuación.)

El módulo 2 utiliza el valor del lugar para unificar la medición, las habilidades de redondeo y los algoritmos estándar para la adición y la resta. El módulo comienza con mucha experiencia práctica utilizando una variedad de herramientas para desarrollar habilidades prácticas de medición y comprensión conceptual de las unidades métricas y de tiempo. La estimación surge naturalmente a través de la aplicación; Esto hace transición a los estudiantes al redondeo. En los temas finales del módulo, los estudiantes redondean para evaluar si sus soluciones a los problemas resueltos utilizando los algoritmos estándar son razonables.

El módulo 7 presenta una oportunidad para que los estudiantes practiquen estrategias de adición y sustracción dentro de 100 y habilidades de resolución de problemas a medida que aprenden a trabajar con varios tipos de unidades dentro de los contextos de longitud, dinero y datos. Los estudiantes representan datos categóricos y de medición utilizando gráficos de imágenes, gráficos de barras y parcelas de línea. Revisan la medición y la longitud de estimación del módulo 2, aunque ahora utilizan unidades métricas y habituales.
