High School Math Problem of the Month - University of Waterloo
Rating
0.0 stars

The Problem of the Month is intended to challenge enthusiastic high school math students. Most problems are designed with the assumption that students attempting them have a solid understanding of grade 11 math, but some problems may still be of interest to motivated younger students.

A new problem will be posted on the first Tuesday of every month starting in October. A hint will follow 10 days later, and a solution another 10 days after that.

Proportional Relationships Decluttered-  white paper-oct20
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

This article attempts to declutter proportionality by having students think about varying quantities and to investigate patterns so they can describe quantities in terms of proportional relationships. Students encounter proportional relationships in their everyday world, and the article provides examples of where these relationships surface and how we can approach building strong ways of thinking. The power of modeling with mathematics is highlighted.

SAME BUT DIFFERENT MATH
Rating
0.0 stars

Same But Different is a powerful routine for use in math classrooms. The activity of same but different is an activity where two things are compared, calling attention to both how they are the same and how they are different.

This apparent paradox is the beauty of the activity. It is important to notice the word BUT. Instead of making a choice – am I going to prove that these are the same or am I going to prove that they are different – students are considering how two items can be both. This is a critically important distinction.

Not same OR different, rather same BUT different.

There are categories for addition/subtraction, early numeracy, multiplication/division, measurement, place value, fractions, ratios, geometry, algebra, and high school math.

Slow Reveal Graphs
Rating
0.0 stars

Slow Reveal Graph (#slowrevealgraph) is an instructional routine that promotes sensemaking about data. This highly engaging routine uses scaffolded visuals and discourse to help students (in K-12 and beyond) make sense of data. As more and more of the graph is revealed, students refine their interpretation and construct meaning, often in surprising ways. This routine increases access for students without sacrificing rigor or engagement.

You will find all types of graphs for all ages of learners from elementary to high school.

Here are the steps:
- It starts with a graph that has been stripped of context: its numbers, its labels, its title.
- The teacher facilitates a discussion around what students notice and wonder. (The slides give discussion suggestions)
- Then another slide is revealed.
- Students identify what information is new.
- Then another slide is revealed.
- Again, students identify what information is new (the title) and discuss how this changes their understanding of the graph.
- As more slides are added, more insight into this data representation is revealed.

The introductory page for the graph also offers more information about the context for this graph, other content connections, and paired texts for students to explore.

Supplemental Learning Packages for High School Mathematics
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

These supplemental learning packages were designed to help address gaps in prerequisite knowledge resulting from school closures due to the 2020 pandemic. There are two different types of package. The Videos and Notes package includes the notes that we provide for each lesson. For each lesson, there is a QR code and link to the video playlist with lessons and examples. The Videos and Questions package allows for minimal printing. Each page in the package covers a single topic, and features a QR code and link to the video playlist. A selection of practice questions are included on the page. An answer key is included at the end of the package. You may wish to use both packages, as the only duplication is in the link and QR code.
