Why is Math so different now?

The way mathematics is being taught in Florida is changing. With the adoption of the new Florida Standards for mathematics, students will be focusing on some critical areas.

Before Now*More memorization *Building foundational skills (+, -, X, ÷,•) *More drills

*Understanding the concepts of *Emphasis on computation mathematics more deeply

* Building skills and problem- solving abilities *Applying mathematics to the real world

Kindergarten Measurement and Data

MAFS.K.MD.1.2:Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has “more of”/“less of” the attribute, and describe the difference. For example, directly compare the heights of two children and describe one child as taller/shorter.

Measurement Sentence Frames: Set 1

  

Grade 1 Measurement and Data

MAFS.1.MD.1.1:Order three objects by length; compare the lengths of two objects indirectly by using a third object.

MAFS.1.MD.1.a:Understand how to use a ruler to measure length to the nearest inch.a. Recognize that the ruler is a tool that can be used to measure the attribute of length.b. Understand the importance of the zero point and end point and that the length measure is the span between two points.c. Recognize that the units marked on a ruler have equal length intervals and fit together with no gaps or overlaps. These equal interval distances can be counted to determine the overall length of an object.

Grade 2 Measurement and Data

MAFS.2.MD.1.4:Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.

What do good problem solvers do?

Problem - solving

1. READ the problem for understanding.

2. PARAPHRASE the problem by putting it into their own words.

3. VISUALIZE or draw a picture or diagram.

4. HYPOTHESIZE by thinking about logical solutions.

5. ESTIMATE or predict the answer.

6. COMPUTE.

7. CHECK.

Math Problem Solving for Upper Elementary Students with Disabilities

by Marjorie Montague, PhD

The C.U.B.E. MethodC.U.B.E. is an acronym that stands for the following word problem solving steps:

Circle the numbers.Underline important words.Box the question.Eliminate unnecessary information.

By using C.U.B.E., children will be able to focus on the important information and get to the heart of what the problem really is asking.

Going beyond CUBES: Consider, Understand, Break it apart, Evaluate, Share
