SynopsisChampion student mastery of essential mathematics content in grades 9-12. Part of the Every Student Can Learn Mathematics series, this guidebook provides high school teachers with a framework for collectively planning units of study in a professional learning community (PLC). The authors share tools and protocols for unwrapping standards, generating unit calendars, developing rigorous lessons, and many other essential team actions. Use this resource to discover practical insight into collaborative planning and inspiring detailed models of unit planning in action: Understand how to collaboratively plan units for high school mathematics. Study the seven unit-planning elements, and learn how to incorporate each in unit designs. Review the role of the PLC at Work® process in enhancing student learning and teacher collaboration. Observe model units for Algebra 1, geometry, and Algebra 2. Receive tools and templates for effective unit planning. Contents: Introduction by Timothy D. Kanold Part 1: Mathematics Unit Planning and Design Elements Chapter 1: Planning for Student Learning of Mathematics in High School Chapter 2: Unit Planning as a Collaborative Mathematics Team Part 2: Transformations on the Coordinate Plane Unit Examples for Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 Chapter 3: Algebra 1 Unit--Graphs of Quadratic Functions Chapter 4: Geometry Unit--Transformations and Congruence Chapter 5: Algebra 2 Unit--Graphs of Trigonometric Functions Epilogue: Mathematics Team Operations Appendix A: Create a Proficiency Map Appendix B: Checklist and Questions for Mathematics Unit Planning, Mathematics Unit Planning in a PLC at Work®, High School provides high school teachers with a seven-step framework for collectively planning units of study. Authors Sarah Schuhl, Timothy D. Kanold, Bill Barnes, Darshen M. Jain, Matthew R. Larson, and Brittany Mozingo help teams identify what students need to know by the end of each unit and how teachers can build student self-efficacy. They advocate using the Professional Learning Community at Work (PLC) process to increase mathematics achievement and give students more equitable learning experiences. The authors share tools and protocols for effectively performing collaborative tasks, such as unwrapping standards, generating unit calendars, determining academic vocabulary and rigorous lessons, utilizing and sharing self-reflections, and designing robust units of instruction. This book provides practical insights into collaborative planning and detailed, inspiring models of this work in action. Mathematics teams will: Learn how to build a shared understanding of the content students need to know in each course by using seven planning elements, Find protocols for unit planning and reproducible templates, Understand how teams can successfully incorporate each unit-planning element in their unit designs, Examine three model units on transformations on the coordinate plane for algebra 1, geometry and algebra 2, Review the role of the PLC at Work process in enhancing student learning and teacher collaboration Book jacket., Champion student mastery of essential mathematics content in grades 9-12.
