|
|
| |
TEXTEAMS is a TEKS/Standards-based
Professional Development Program for elementary, middle, and high school
mathematics and science educators in Texas |
|
| |
|
|
| |
TEXTEAMS Leaders must demonstrate a deep knowledge base in the teaching and
learning of mathematics or science, including a thorough understanding of
mathematics content.
Leaders are either experienced in or are interested in providing high-quality
professional development that supports the implementation of the TEKS. Becoming
a Leader requires a personal commitment to participate in and to provide quality
professional development to Texas educators.

As TEXTEAM Leaders we have completed the
following Institutes: |
|

|
|
| |
 |
Rethinking Middle School Mathematics:
Algebraic Reasoning Across the TEKS |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
This institute highlights the algebraic"habits of mind" called for in
the TEKS for middle school mathematics by building and making connections
between concrete, verbal, numeric, graphic, and symbolic representations of
relationships between quantities. The institute explores patterns and problems
that lead to the development of algebraic thinking skills. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
Rethinking Middle School Mathematics:
Numerical Reasoning Across the TEKS |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
The Rethinking Middle School Mathematics: Numerical Reasoning Across the TEKS
institute assists teachers in bridging the gap from students' understanding of
whole numbers to the complex understanding of the rational number system
and numerical reasoning required by the TEKS and TAKS. Participants engage
in activities and discussions that promote the teaching, learning, and
assessment of numerical reasoning. Using multiple representations, appropriate
technology, and concrete models, the institute broadens and deepens teacher
content knowledge and instructional strategies. The Rethinking Middle School
Mathematics: Numerical Reasoning Across the TEKS institute focuses on an
in-depth examination of the relationship between fractions, decimals, percents,
and rational number operations. |

 |
Rethinking Middle School Mathematics:
Proportionality Across the TEKS |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
The TEKS call for an increased emphasis on proportional relationships across
middle school mathematics curriculum. This institute focuses on the development
of the properties, language, and representations of proportional relationships
that arise from number, operation, algebra, probability, statistics,
measurement, and geometry. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
Algebra I: 2000 and Beyond |
|
|
| |
The Algebra I: 2000 and Beyond institute assists teachers in bridging the
gap from students' concrete understanding of arithmetic to the
functions-based algebra called for in the TEKS and TAKS. Participants
engage in activities and discussions that promote the teaching, learning,
and assessment of algebra for everyone. Using multiple representations,
appropriate technology, and concrete models, the institute broadens and
deepens teacher content knowledge and instructional strategies. The
Algebra I:2000 and Beyond institute focuses on an in-depth examination of
foundations of functions and linear functions. Additionally, quadratic and
exponential functions are explored. |

|
| |
 |
Algebra Assessments : Practiced-Based Professional Development |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
This institute utilizes and examines student work from TEKS - based Algebra
I classrooms. Participants analyze student work to evaluate the level of
student understanding. Instructional strategies to address student needs
are generated and discussed. Participants gather student work on selected
assessment tasks from their own classroom. Classroom, campus and district
level implementation is addressed as it relates to TEKS and TAKS. |
