COURSE OVERVIEW

This quarter we will focus on planning units and designing lessons. You will study a curriculum unit, learning more about the mathematics it entails, how students will approach tasks and how their understandings might develop. In teams, you will work on outlining the unit and designing benchmark lessons. At the end of the quarter, we will have the opportunity to teach and analyze several of those benchmark lessons. The work we undertake this year will prepare you in your first years of teaching as you make sense of the curriculum units you are expected to teach.

The work we undertake this year will prepare you in your first years of teaching as you make sense of the curriculum units you are expected to teach. Our course activities will help you continue to build your content knowledge of the mathematics you will be expected to teach. Our work will build your ability to adapt and design curriculum units to support children's learning, differentiating instructional design where necessary to meet the language, cultural and learning needs of your students. Our work will build your ability to design and facilitate lessons that involve eliciting and building student thiniking and assessing students' understanding.
