Description
This comprehensive lesson combines research-based practices with principles from UDL and other cognition concepts designed for all students regardless of English-language proficiency, previous grade-level proficiency, and/or disability status to succeed in accessing and mastering grade-level math skills.
- The resource is accessible with a consistent structure that includes explicit vocab instruction followed by an interactive vocab game (Quizizz), scaffolded guided notes with embedded gradual release, and key points that stamp the learning throughout. Accessibility has become even more important following Covid-19 where many students arrive behind grade-level and are still expected and capable of reaching grade-level proficiency.
- The resource is engaging with real world connections and metaphors that boost student thinking, and included opportunities for partner/group practice, discussion and claim analysis, and fun practice activities to reinforce the learning. My discourse scores increased greatly from implementing this resource!
- The resource is rigorous in reaching the aspect of rigor (procedural, application, and/or conceptual) that the standard calls for, and provides many at-bats with the full expression of the given CCSS throughout the lesson and on the Exit Ticket/Additional Practice Sheet, which mirror problems from standardized-testing assessments.
This particular lesson is aligned to CCSS 6.NS.B.2, 6.NS.C.6, and 6.NS.C.7 of converting between improper and mixed fractions and ordering them on a negative/positive horizontal number line in order to reach the rigor of the 6th grade standard. A real world connection of mixed identities/fitting into a box is used to activate thinking.
A resource overview with suggesting pacing and delivery is linked here and also included in the zipped file. I taught this lesson over the course of two days in order to maximize processing time, but pacing is flexible! Word documents are included in the zipped file should you want to edit the materials before implementing.
