Give-one-Get One ActivityOn your index card… List 2 ways you teach or incorporate
math vocabulary into your classroom/lessons.
Find 3 new ways from others in the room, write it on your card so you have a total of 5 different ways.
You can sit when you have 5.
Mathematical Vocabulary Idea
What is one unique mathematical vocabulary idea you “got” that you are willing to share with the group?
Incorporating Literature (i.e. The Shape Poem/and Song)
Communication (i.e. building with shapes, math vocabulary)
Making Connections (i.e. art and music) Formative Assessment (i.e. individual
work using shape soup recipe and creating a visual)>
Literacy/Math ConnectionLiteracy/Math Connection
If you have used one of the literature pieces in your classroom share a different activity that you have tried. (record it on the chart paper)
What other books do you recommend for math and literacy integration?
• Aligned to NYS math standards and performance indicators (Sample Tasks).
• 5 rotations (number sense (a), measurement (b), algebra (c), geometry (d) and statistics/probability (e)). Your letter is on your nametag.
• 20 minute rotations
