473- Let's Clarify Math Modeling in PK–2

Friday, April 15, 2016: 2:45 PM-4:00 PM
3010 (Moscone)

 

Lead Speaker:
Mike Long


 

What is math modeling (as noted in mathematical practice MP.4), and how is that different from modeling mathematics? Participants will engage in classroom-ready tasks, including designing a playground, to contrast the two. Throughout, participants will be introduced to the modeling process and how rich modeling tasks can address PK–2 content along with other mathematical practices.
