Tutorial Guidance

Nate Franz, TSA – Math Dept.

Math Department Focus Areas

High Level Tasks Task predicts performance; if we increase the cognitive

demand of the work students are engaged in, their learning will increase.

Fluency All students need to compute knowledge of

procedures, knowledge of when and how to use them appropriately, and skill in performing them flexibly, accurately, and efficiently.

Conceptual Models and Tools Leverage vertical coherence; the connections in math

will strengthen understanding and allow for reason and intuition.

Foundational Standards

When we remediate, we still want the standards and progressions to provide guidance.

The foundational standards are included in the overview of each module.

3

Problem Sets

There is no time built into the math block for review of the Problem Set (Homework).

4

Mid-Module Assessments

The assessments are rich and long. Teachers can collaborate to:

• Use specific questions from assessments in tutorial

• Re-teach key concepts based off data

5

Conceptual Models and Tools

Tutorial can be a place to reinforce these.

Technology

LearnZillion is putting together SCSD aligned content for each module. This will include videos and problems for students.
