Workshop 1. Proportionality and Similar Figures: Discovery
The teachers discover what makes similar figures similar and how a scale factor affects side lengths, angles, perimeters, and areas when figures are enlarged or reduced.
Workshop 2. Proportionality and Similar Figures: In Practice
In this follow-up to Workshop 1, the teachers discuss how their students approached the proportionality lessons. They evaluate their students’ work as a way to strengthen their instructional practice, and create a new lesson based on their assessments.
Workshop 3. Patterns and Functions: Discovery
The teachers use real-life problems to display experimental data in graphs and tables, and analyze the resulting patterns to make predictions and develop algebraic equations.
Workshop 4. Patterns and Functions: In Practice
In this follow-up to Workshop 3, the teachers discuss how they taught the patterns lessons in their classrooms, learn to evaluate student work, and design new lessons.
Workshop 5. Polygons and Angles: Discovery
The teachers tackle hands-on activities to investigate angle measurements and their relationships in triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, and other polygons.
Workshop 6. Polygons and Angles: In Practice
In this follow-up to Workshop 5, the teachers discuss how they taught the polygon lessons in their classrooms, learn to evaluate student work, and design new lessons.
Workshop 7. Sampling and Probability: Discovery
The teachers collect data and determine the probability of an event, use probability to make predictions, and learn how to conduct random sampling.
Workshop 8. Sampling and Probability: In Practice
In this follow-up to Workshop 7, the teachers discuss how they taught the sampling lessons in their classrooms, learn to evaluate whether or not student work meets standards.
