Field+Experience+Requirements

In __March__,

1. You will focus on learning about your class - the math curriculum, routines, and typical activities - though completing your Written Observation Reports for each session You will be given the chance to grade students’ work to get to know their skill level.

2. You will also locate a technology tool - applet or game - that you will share with me (via update on your Wiki) and your cooperating teacher. You may then have the opportunity to introduce that game or activity to the students.

3. You will create a teaching tool for the classroom - a bulletin board or game or other materials you and your cooperating teacher should agree on.

4. Teach 1 or 2 Everyday Mathematics Lessons in the last two weeks of March

4. Schedule appointments to review your ideas for your problem solving project and then to review your materials that you are preparing to implement this project.


 * You need to identify the type of problem and problem solving strategy you want to teach
 * You will need to create flipcharts for each lesson
 * you will need to create models of problem posing and solution presentations - you will show the video from their last presentations to analyze, you will make examples yourself to demonstrate best practice in creating video and technology presentation materials.
 * You need to create your pre and post test
 * You need to create a "model" or "sample" product for the problem posing activity and problem solution presentation
