(4-NBT6)

Notes
Reflections:

1.       Students are having difficulty getting started on the factors and multiples investigation; mainly due to lack of prior knowledge of factors and multiples.
2.      Some teachers are reassessing their intervention groups based on the most current data from IPT, assessments, etc…
3.      Most classes are close to being on the same lesson
4.      We’d like to include more gallery walks in the curriculum and independent written explanations from students to explain their thinking


Today’s task:  review and update the division summative assessment

Notes
Reflection:
IPTs are taking a long time.  They are really rigorous.
Independent work and then checking in with a partner is working for them.
Things are going well overall.   Everyone seems pleased with Multiplication Unit so far.

Proofreading the unit: curriculum guide vs powepoint.
We split up on the proofing of days.
All but Day 18 is proofed on the curriculum guide.
:)

Chose division pre-assessment questions. You may now give the division preassessment as soon as Lisa emails the test ID number.
