Module Four

 

Teachers should print out and review   List of Objectives   for Module Four then

refer to the   suggested textbook    or   textbook of their choice  for explanations

of the specific Module Four concepts.  Explanation(s)  should indicate knowledge.

 

   Knowledge in a simple form should include a definition with example(s).

     @ Click on link above for a few practical definitions and examples. @

 

  Carefully review   Explanations of Module Four Concepts & Problems

 which are the first two links  (URL)  at the top of the page for Module Four.

 

Teachers should  printout and complete the provided set of problems at the

  bottom  Module Four Problems Page.  It is provided in PDF form for use.

 

 Teachers should decide on one topic in Module Four and create an appropriate

study guide for their grade level.  Study Guides should only be one page in length.

 

It is extremely important that Concepts include explanations and drawings.

Refer to the provided concepts on Module Four Page.  Again one page only!

 

Carefully review the Brief Overview of Ohio Benchmarks for 5 to 7 Grades.

or if more appropriate the Summary of All Ohio Benchmarks of All Grades.

 Teachers should review explanations (words above)  from the computations

included in Module Four.  Provided problem sets will be provided for student use.

 

The complete set of problems ( A, B, C, D, & E, F, G, H ) with answers

will be provided for each teacher.  They will be in a Zip file and/or in PDF.

 

Teachers are expected to select one of the computational sets of problems in

Module Four and change each problem for an entirely new set of problems

and create an accompanying answer sheet, which allows teachers to experience

active participation in this unique and careful design for success & motivation.

 

This  changed set of problems  is to be on one page and to be sent later to the

     TMT instructor via E-mail attachment and hopefully using MS Word.

 

Now, Module Four raises the difficulty level  by mixing up problems in

( A, B, C, D ).  Increasing difficulty was verified by classroom experience.

 

  Each provided  mixed  computation  set of problems    ( E, F, G, H  )

should be review by each teacher to verify that they are  in fact the same

as the problems provided in the computation sets ( A, B, C, D ).   Wow!

 

 Teachers  do not have to be change mixed set of problems as in A,B,C,D.

 

Teachers are expected to select a set of computation problems  (A, B, C, D)

solve the problems  and  change the numbers into a new set of problems.

 

Teachers are expected to select one topic from  Module Four  concepts

and complete a one page study guide with explanations and examples.

 

 Teachers are expected to investigate the  web sites (URLs) at the bottom of

Module Four and select two web sites and complete a two sentence reflection

for each of selected web sites.  Web Site name is to be included with reflection!

 

Hopefully, Computation Problem Set   and  Concept Study Guide  with

Web Site Reflections on provided links can be sent via Email attachments.    Q.E.D. !!!
