Abstract:
Students are open to making sense in a reading/writing classroom. Most people expect that reading/writing classrooms involve student interpretation and explanation of texts. In math classrooms, though, students often just want us to show us how to do it. They want teachers to do the interpreting and explaining, and we need to give that power back to them. With these materials, we explore how to translate a literacy frame for sense-making into our math classes. We’ll consider: How can we harness students’ background knowledge and observations to build a collective understanding before our first calculation? How do we promote close reading of a mathematical text? How do we engage students who move quickly, while supporting students who need more time? Our workshop is for anyone who believes math should make sense both to ourselves and to our students. All workshop materials can be found at bit.ly/COABE2018CUNY

Abstract:
The NTI AEC started the academic year with a managed enrollment program for students enrolled in ESL and GED classes on campus. The transition provided a platform for our team to have professional conversations when it came to developing a student-centered approach to classroom structure. As the GED faculty team, we will share noteworthy reflections and tools related to math and language instruction and to the facilitation of productive staff dialogue.
