IM 6-12 Math: Teach & Learn

How can educators implement IM Math, a problem-based curriculum, building towards a world where all learners know, use, and enjoy mathematics? This two-day implementation event is designed to get educators ready to teach and learn within problem-based classrooms where student thinking is front and center. This series gives educators first-hand experience with and confidence in using the IM Math curriculum.

Learning Goals

• Identify opportunities for students to learn mathematical ideas through the experience of solving problems.
• Describe the structure of a lesson and the purpose of each component.
• Recognize teacher moves that support problem-based learning.
• Describe teacher moves that build a positive inclusive mathematical community.
• Describe an instructional routine.
• Describe how instructional routines create space for students to: play with mathematical ideas/ learn math by solving problems/ learn by collaborating with each other/ listen, respond to, and value each other’s thinking
• Prepare an instructional routine.
• Locate resources and opportunities to enhance access and challenge for all students.
• Make decisions about when and how to use the suggested strategies for English learners and students with disabilities.
• Recognize the value of co-constructing norms to build a positive inclusive mathematical community.
• Recognize the progression of understanding across the unit and how it is assessed.
• Begin to plan a unit and a lesson using the progression of understanding; using student thinking to drive learning.
• Trust the curriculum.
