(Re)introduction to Numeracy Nets: Bridging the Gap Between Assessment & Instruction || Work within the Blackboard Collaborate online meeting room with increasing ease

To be able to answer the following:
 * What is a numeracy net?
 * How is a numeracy net structured?
 * How can numeracy nets be used:
 * as a diagnostic tool?
 * for planning and monitoring progress?
 * to build Individual Education/Student Support Plans?
 * with Professional Learning Communities?

Dig deeper into the numeracy nets to enhance student learning by: No Numeracy Nets work assigned prior to this event.
 * Completing **Step 1** of the Collaborative Planning Cycle (Page 17-18 in Numeracy Net binder). That is, identify the learning goal.
 * Completing **Step 2** of the cycle. That is, prepare for the assessment.
 * **Beginning Step 3** of the cycle. That is, begin to identify and clarify student needs. || **Assigned prior to this event**:

(Re)read the checkpoint elaboration and relevant professional resources, in our case, Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics, for further insights for the checkpoints that your group selected.

 * Administer** the sample assessment **tasks** as agreed by the team with your students.

Please take notes on the observed understandings of each student by completing “OBSERVED UNDERSTANDING If Not Yet, what does child say, do, or write?” on the Overview Chart in the Appendix to inform the decisions that we make at the next Digging Deeper into Numeracy Nets session.
 * Analyze your student work** samples and observations. (See p. 8, “How are assessment tasks marked?” Do #1-5 and we will collaboratively review 4, 5 and do 6 next time.) Identify what each student understands.
 * Please submit Whole-Class or Small-Group Readiness Sheet (Depending on your grade, Appendix C or Appendix D) for for the Checkpoints that were selected by your group as soon as soon as possible. Obviously, the longer that I have to compile the data and prepare for the next session the better.**

PowerPoint Slides: Grades K-3 and 3-5 Groups Here is a .pdf version of the slides without the classroom video samples:

Grades 6-9 Group

Files:

Recording Link: To be posted once it arrives from Elluminate. || Numeracy Nets Session - From Data to Evidence of Student Learning || Use the online meeting room with increasing ease

Continue to build/refine the self-assessment table

Continue to build up the summary data chart

Review the “Three-Part Format for Problem-Based Lessons”

Continue to set the stage for increasing the number of checkpoints (re)assessed

Dig deeper into the numeracy nets to enhance student learning by:
 * Completing Step 7 of the cycle. That is, analyze student work to evaluate whether the instruction met student needs
 * Completing Step 8 of the cycle. That is, Reassess: repeat cycle or move to another Checkpoint

Outline the plan for the final two numeracy nets sessions || **Assigned prior to this event:** Reread the checkpoint elaboration and relevant professional resources, in our case, Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics for further insights into the Checkpoint that your group chose to dig deeper into as a group. Grades K-3 Group: Grades K-2 Checkpoint 6 and, if time permits, Checkpoint 2. Grades 3-5 Group: Grade 3 Checkpoint 5 Grades 6-9 Group: Grade 6 Checkpoint 7 and Checkpoint 6 (The group added this to the original list.)

(Re)submit the Data Sheet as you continue to work on all of the checkpoints. Pay extra special attention to the checkpoints that we are digging deeper into with your group. Try submitting a visual from your classroom too!

Complete Step 6 of the cycle. That is, commit to delivering the instructional plan to the best of your ability. Observe student responses. Collect student work and bring it to the next meeting. Be ready to share your experiences and observations with the team.
 * The grades K-3 group is continuing with Checkpoint 6 and **Activity 3.1**: Equations With Number Patterns, page 73 **and/or any of the linked activities** indicated in the checkpoint elaboration **using the Three-Part Format for Problem-Based Lessons**, pages 15-20 of Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics Grades K-3 and resbmitting data on the chart, especially for Checkpoint 6, prior to the next session by fax or by e-mailing the spreadsheet. The sooner that that the data comes in the better for my preparation. If time permits, the group also agreed to dig deeper into Checkpoint 2 and any of the linked activities.
 * The grades 3-5 group is doing Checkpoint 5 **and any of the linked activites using the Three-Part Format for Problem-Based Lessons**, pages 16-21 of Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics in Grades 3-5 and resubmitting data on the chart, especially for Checkpoint 5, prior to the next session by fax or by e-mailing the spreadsheet. The sooner that the data comes in the better for my preparation.
 * The grades 6-9 group is doing the sample assessment tasks for Checkpoint 6 and **Activity 2.24**: Learning About Division, page 64 and for Checkpoint 7 are completing **Multiplication and Division**, page 66 and **Multiplication and Division Stories**, page 77 from [[file:Grade 6 Checkpoint 7 Selected Learning Activities.pdf|Grade 6 Checkpoint 7 Selected Learning Activities.pdf]] **using the Three-Part Format for Problem-Based Lessons**, pages 16-21 of Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics in Grades 3-5 and resubmitting data on the chart, especially for Checkpoints 6 & 7, prior to the next session by fax or by e-mailing the spreadsheet. The sooner that the data comes in the better for my preparation.
