This essay focuses on The mathematical reasoning. The novelty and complexity of making a recommendation for the best exterior building
Motivate, Engage, and Develop Mathematical Reasoning The mathematical reasoning talent goal and performance of understanding are intrinsically motivating through the choices students must make in researching (Continued) five • Teach to Develop STEM Talent 103 and selecting sustainable materials. Taking on the role of professional builders and doing what they actually do fosters learners’ competence and self-efficacy.
The novelty and complexity of making a recommendation for the best exterior building material provides the optimal match of challenge and skill. Finally, the task involves students in an important moral cause: environmental sustainability. While your curriculum context may differ, you can apply these same design principles to develop mathematical reasoning aptitude in your students. Figure 5.8 Sample Talent Goal Frame: Mathematical Reasoning Talent Aptitude Content Standard Learning Objective Performance of Understanding 5. Mathematical Reasoning Perceives patterns and relationships; quickly and accurately applies mathematical knowledge to solve problems; selects appropriate strategies; analyzes and evaluates results; proposes alternate solutions. Content Standard Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume, and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects. (CSSS.MATH. CONTENT.7.G.6.) Objective Calculate the surface area to determine how much material will be needed to cover a given structure. Sustainable Materials Recommendation Your Livewell proposal.
are covered using sustainable materials such as the ones we have researched. Using the dimensions from buildings in our community, select two ecofriendly materials and calculate the amounts needed and the costs based on current rates. Propose a recommendation for which material to use for the exteriors of your community buildings. Talent-Targeted Teaching and Learning Goal: STEM Healthy Community by Design (Grades 6–8) Use to calculate surface area of a building and the cost to cover the exterior using sustainable materials.
Student-Directed Talent Goal: I use mathematical reasoning to recognize patterns in numbers or shapes, determine the rules, and apply mathematical knowledge to solve problems. Assessing You can assess students’ ongoing demonstration of using the Talent Aptitude Learning Progressions. These stages of development provide a systematic way to describe and document evidence and provide feedback. Chapter 7 provides a detailed process for assessing talent aptitudes.
