PEARSON ENVISION MATH 2. 0

MATHEMATICAL UNDERSTANDING § The math standards define what students should understand be able to do in their study of mathematics. § Asking a student to understand something also means asking a teacher to assess whether the student has understood it. § What does mathematical understanding look like? One way for teachers to do that is to ask the student to justify, in a way that is appropriate to the student’s mathematical maturity, why a particular mathematical statement is true or where a mathematical rule comes from. § Mathematical understanding and procedural skill are equally important, and both are assessable using deep mathematical tasks.

CONNECTION TO THE COMMON CORE § MAJOR CONTENT: Students solve problems involving the Major Content for the grade/course with connections to the Common Core Standards. § SUPPORTING CONTENT: Students solve problems involving the Additional and Supporting Content for the grade/course with connections to the Common Core Standards. § EXPRESSING MATHEMATICAL REASONING: Students demonstrate grade/course-level mathematical reasoning by constructing viable arguments, critiquing the reasoning of others, and/or attending to precision when making mathematical statements.

CONNECTION TO THE COMMON CORE § MODELING / APPLICATION: Students solve real-world problems with a degree of difficulty appropriate to the grade/course. Students apply knowledge and skills articulated in the standards for the current grade/course by engaging in the practice of mathematical modeling. § ASSESSMENT: Students are assessed using the 8 math practices. Some of these math practices include: making sense of problems; reasoning abstractly and quantitatively; constructing arguments and critiquing the reasoning of others; modeling; using appropriate tools; and attending to precision.

COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2. 0 The following are the main updates to the Envisions Math Program: § Content is organized into major, supporting, and additional clusters to ensure learning connections. § Students are provided with opportunities to document their thoughts digitally and in print. § Activities are designed to promote student inquiry, group work, and classroom conversation. § Problem-based learning or “Solve and Share” is the first step of every lesson, and provides opportunities for students to use critical thinking.

COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2. 0 The following are the main updates to the Envisions Math Program: § Math practice and homework can be personalized to meet the needs of the students and provides the teacher with data on student understanding of various concepts. § Differentiation for student levels is accomplished through multiple modalities that include math tools, math games, problem solving, and “Today’s Challenge”. § Interdisciplinary connections between math and science are built into every topic.

COMPONENTS OF ENVISION MATH 2. 0 § Physical copy of student text/workbook § Access to digital coursework for all areas of the program, including classwork, homework, and games through the Pearson Realize website § Physical and digital access to the teacher edition, including a test generator, Today’s Challenge, and intervention/remediation materials § Classroom anchor charts § Student manipulative kits § Activities for differentiated instruction
