On page 110, Marzano's Building Academy Vocabulary steps are listed.
Choose one word from your grade level's Common Core Math that you have not taught previously.
Follow the steps for that word.
1-Algorithm: step-by-step instructions for solving a problem 2-Write, in words, an algorithm for solving 3 x 5 3-Draw pictures/symbols showing the algorithm to solve 3 x 5 4-Use the Frayer Model to show your understanding of "algorithm". 5-Play Pass the plate with your teammates. Use words and symbols to teach a second grader the meaning of the word. 6-Play "Talk a Mile a Minute" with teammates.
1. Attribute-The characteristics of a shape (object). 2. Write (or dictate) what you think a square looks like. 3.Draw a picture of a square. 4. Use geoboards to build shape then record in journal. 5. Play Greet and Go 6. Play Pass the Plate (with adult volunteer or 5th grade buddies dictating)
Like Trish, I didn't use the word attribute very often. 1. attribute - in regards to the characteristics of a 3-D shape. 2. Buddy buzz the restating of the description of a sphere, then later lessons cone, cylinder, and cube 3. make a model of a sphere with play dough or foil. 4. record the description in journal along with picture (teacher models). 5. chants - play 3d chanting song and learn part for a sphere http://reallyroper.blogspot.com/2011/03/harry-kindergarten-favorite-math-songs.html 6. word wizard- recording sheet for finding examples at home.
Sorry, I'm out of the loop on this one again. Ch. 8 in my book emphasizes the importance of students working collaboratively in the classroom. They refer to learning to "think together." This has to be set up carefully to avoid "group think" and competition. It is important that students be taught to express disagreement and to emphasize that disagreements are about ideas, not individuals or relationships. They suggest that students develop rules for group work that ensure input from everyone and respect for all. Research shows that the process of "thinking together" not only improves group performance but also improves individual performance on similar tasks.
Closed Figure (2nd Grade word) 1. A figure with all sides connected. 2. A shape that has no open sides. 3. Draw a picture of a square, hexagon, etc with all the edges connected at the vertex. 4. Students will be given stencils of the shapes to show that all sides connect. 5. Students will discuss with their shoulder buddy, why their shape is a closed figure. 6. Students will sit facing their partner. They will have to give directions about how to draw the shape without using the shapes name, but using the word closed figure.
Algorithm: 1. A process to be followed in order to solve problems. 2. Describe an algorithm to solve for 26/3. 3. Draw 26/3 using pictures. 4. Use the same algorithm to solve 29/5. 5. Think of 3 key words to explain what algorithm mean. Share with a neighbor. 6. Play "Pass the Plate" with Team Table.
Vertex 1. The corner of a shape. The point where two lines come together. 2. Children will buddy buzz with their neighbors the definition of a vertex. 3. Students will use their arms to make a vertex. Next they will draw a vertex on an ipad using a drawing app. Circle the vertex. 4. Students can work in groups and use a digital camera to take pictures of shapes that have vertices. 5. Students will look at the pictures they took and count the number of vertices and how they know they are a vertex. 6. With the photos the children took, children will group the pics into like number of vertices
Origin 1. The (0,0) point on a graph where the two axes meet. 2. Restate in your own words. 3. Draw a coordinate grid, label the orgin and make a red point. 4. Make a double entry notebook to explain origin. 5. With your elbow partner explain where the origin is on this graph. 6. Make a graph on the floor tile and put a star at the origin.
