Writing in Mathematics:
• Writing is how we think our way into a subject- so we encourage students to write to deepen and extend their thinking• Writing is a way to integrate and
connect mathematics to students’ lives and learning.
Eight Standards for Mathematical Practicethese are both the goal for math
students and the means to the goal
Indiana Common Core Standards
Problem Solving Explanations:
• Written explanation of the process used to solve a particular problem
• The explanation might involve asking the student to suggest another way to solve the same problem.
• Sharing of other’s explanations broadens thinking.
Writing in Mathematics
• Explaining Ideas • Writing might be to explain an algorithm in
words such as, “How would you teach your younger cousin to subtract two digit numbers?”
• Exit Slips ask the students to summarize the new
learning of the day in order to plan for future instruction.
ask the students for their questions.• Tell WHAT you did and WHY you did it!
