Writing is one of the parts of language that secondary mathematicians are still developing. For some students, ESL/ELL for example, what they know about mathematics may exceed their ability to communicate it through the written word. Students learn to write by writing. Writing needs to be original thought, not just copying something that someone else wrote. Therefore, it is imperative that opportunities are provided often for students to engage in writing about mathematics. As the teacher, providing an environment that is rich in mathematical language is a priority. Students’ writing should make sense and be complete. This will develop over time for secondary mathematicians as they have more opportunities to write about their experiences. Writing About offers a collaborative opportunity for small groups of students to work individually first to write about a concept and then to come together and putting their individual work into a paragraph about the topic. A word cloud is given as a prompt for words and ideas. Facilitation notes are provided as well as student activity sheet. This is a good activity for struggling students and ESL/ELL who may need some support in writing.

Students learn mathematics more effectively and more deeply when reading and writing is directed at learning mathematics. (Bossé and Faulconer 2008) This packet includes four activities that target foundational components for developing understandings and building fluency with key mathematical topics: addition & subtraction. Vocabulary and writing are targeted and facilitation notes are provided to support making mathematics content accessible to all learners. Templates and additional resources are provided.

There are many uses for glyphs. They are often used for students to share information about themselves. While the glyphs are being created, students are engaged with other topics such as counting, literacy, geometric shapes, etc. A traditional snowman glyph legend and template is included. Extending the idea of “reading” a glyph and connecting it to problem solving creates some interesting and rich tasks for students. The following set of glyphs can be used in centers or during instruction to help develop students’ observation skills, logical reasoning and problem-solving skills.

There is a need, a time, and a place for building procedural fluency no matter what mathematical topics are being studied. However, moving students beyond procedural mathematics to developing true understandings of the mathematics with which they are engaging requires students to think. The Farmer Jones tasks for high school students requires students to investigate the relationships between the tangram pieces while working an open-ended problem. One activity requires students to maximize income and profit while the second asks for a minimization. Developing different options and presenting those options is required. Even though this is a contrived problem, students can make it more authentic by researching the crops and livestock options in their geographic region. Questions that move the learning forward, as well as extending the learning and reflecting are provided in addition to facilitation notes. This resource is good for students with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies.

One of the gold standard resources for mathematics is NCTM’s Navigating Through…series. Each grade band series includes books for Navigating through - Algebra, Data Analysis and Probability, Discrete, Geometry, Measurement, Number and Operations, and Problem Solving and Reasoning. For Middle School and High School there is also a Connections book in the series. The investigations in the series provide opportunities for students to reason, conjecture, and communicate about mathematics. Having used the series for years, I saw a need to quickly be able to locate potential lessons and activities. This compilation includes the lesson title and the goals. On a PC use “Ctrl F” and on a Mac use “Command F” to search for lessons and activities by key word.

Place value is the corner stone for building numeracy. Having a base ten mat that shows the verbal – both the place value and the name for the manipulative, the numerical, as well as the pictorial helps students build stronger connections and deepen their understanding as they work with place value. This is a mat for units, rods, flats, and cubes. There is a version also for legal paper.
