we've got LeeAnn Miranda is on the line from one of our Pearson salespeople and
Miranda just to let you know I think we might have someone from every province in almost every territory here in Canada
today yes exciting okay good stuff um so feel free to ask questions along
the way normal only we take a second to do a poll what we're gonna do right now is just quickly make sure that your chat
works you've already introduced yourself Kim asked you to do all panelists and attendees but I'm winging it I'm gonna
go with just a yes/no question have you
used mythology for more than one month so yes or no into the chat have you used
mythology for more than one month yes or no I'm getting about two-thirds no and
one-third yes as it seems like for every to knows there's a yes okay that's really great cuz I am known to be a fast
talker I will try my best to slow down but please ask questions along the way this is just good for me to get a sense
of those that are brand-new to mythology and those that have been using it for a little while so let's get going so today
Overview
we're gonna do a quick overview of using mythology with the planning and the
differentiation in mind for both at school and at home we're gonna walk you through some parts of the learning
progression as well as the mythology little books and the activities and we will do that and give you a demo of
mythology CA we will talk about that the components that are currently free and
then also the components that are available for purchase so currently
you've got open access to the little books and parent letters and mythology dossier and that will be coming to an
end shortly June 30th but of course all of the stuff that's been available in
open access will be available for purchase as well and I'll be walking you through some of those components as far
as the print and the digital pieces so that's ology as a family of resources
from K to 8 currently the bottom row that you see are the pieces that help
the building blocks that helped us build mythology you've got the research document that's
available online that you can just google and find all of our research that
we did before we began building mythology the learning pression is our
continuum from k to 3 that's available to show how the math progresses between
the grades over time we've also got the professional learning resources that you might be familiar with things like what
to look for or taking shape or even vanduul and then of course implementation
support that follows some of these webinars and then on the top row you've
got some of the materials so we've got little books from k23 that i'll walk you through today we've also got activity
kits grade 1 and 2 in french and 3 is coming in september in english and then
we'll follow in frame which and then mythology dossier and I'll be walking
through the components of that as well today so what is the learning progression learning correction is just
Learning Progression
a step-by-step look at how math develops over time it's organized by the math
strands and then sub categorized into Big Ideas conceptual threads and
indicators and it was developed in Alberta at the University of Alberta by dr. Lynn McGarvey she took all the
different progressions that we've seen across Canada and even in North America
and she put together something like this that reflects Canadian curriculum as
well as developmental understanding of mathematics and so it looks something like this here's one of our page spreads
for number and the big idea quantities and numbers can be added and subtracted
to determine how many and how much this is one of the pages and as you see it's
split into two conceptual threads we've got conceptual meanings of addition and subtraction and fluency of
addition subtraction and as it progresses you move from early understandings inkay over at the
left-hand side - later understandings in grade three on the right hand side and so for each one
of the strands we've got a series of big ideas thirteen big ideas across the
strands and so this can help with planning when you know where students are coming from and where they'll be
going - I saw someone in the chat mentioned that they teach grade four and this is really important to see where
are those students in your class coming from in order to know what their needs might be in your class
so let's start with the little books the little books are built along a progression or a learning pathway
organized by Big Ideas so here's the firt one of the big ideas that quantities and numbers can be added and
subtracted just like I showed you and so these are the stories that progress over time from grade one where we have that's
ten where they add and subtract to ten and compose and decompose to ten all along the pathway in an order up to
grade two books and then the next pathway will show you the grade three
books so these books can be used in a sequence to follow along that same big
idea over time and see how those concepts develop over time we've got 72 titles from k23
half of them being a number and then half in the other strands so here these
stories were written to help support differentiation flexibility and
engagement they're bright they're colorful students love them and there are about 20 books in grade 2 and
they're like I mentioned organized by Big Idea 1/2 number 1/2 all the other
strands and for each one of the stories there's a cross strand connection so you might be working on perhaps number but
there may also be patterns involved as well or you may be working on data but
there may be number involved as well so all of those stories will have those cross trans connections for you in
addition we've got indigenous kin actions that have been written by Canadian indigenous authors and
educators like sharing our stories you see here each grade has two to four
books that will address some of those concepts and again all of this material
has been adapted for French so let's take a moment to use the chat
Using the Chat
again this is a two-page spread from a raised bakery and I don't know if you're anything like me but you visited two
importance before we're kind of missing it these days so here's a spread that will remind us of what we have perhaps
not seen in a little while what math do you see just by looking at these
pictures I'll give you a second to just
drop that in the chat so Miranda we're
seeing counting and division counting by fives estimation multiplying addition
subtraction more subtraction arrays area model listening education amazing their
friend Lisa measuring if you're baking those muffins at home and not going to Tim Hortons anymore or Ray's bakery so
there's layers of different math that you definitely can see in those voting random even got fractions and we've got
data collection here - oh my gosh amazing that's great so all of these
stories I'm using the wordless text image right here where I'm just focusing
on the images and getting you to have a conversation about what math you might see and you might be doing this with
students where you might just project an image and ask some questions but you
might get them to generate some of the questions as well which is a great way to use some of these stories so here in
the bottom right corner you see that this is a Ray's bakery and this has been written for grade two students in
Activity Kit
addition to the little books we also have an activity kit so I'm gonna walk
you through all the print components first and then show you how it lives digitally so this is another one of our
print components in the top right corner you see the two boxes and if you purchase the print components you get
two boxes half number so the first box will all be number and the second box will be all
the other strands and of course these were again written to help provide teachers with engaging lessons some tips
about what to look for and some probing questions that you might use when you're talking to students or maybe you're
meeting them these days virtually there's assessment and next step
supports on the back of the card and these are all little cards that fit in the box they even carry around with you
there's also another layer of math everyday cards and intervention cards that I will go into but we've got over a
hundred activities with built-in accommodations and extensions and combined grade support and just over
half of them have accompanying colorful engaging student cards that have that differentiation built in and of course
all of these again are adapted for French so I'm gonna give you a chance to
chat again do you see any opportunities here to differentiate what might that
differentiation look like for the students in your class so here's the front of one of our cards and the back
of another one working on the same concept of grouping to count so I'll
give you a second to drop that into the chat it's great with so many on we get
fast answers we got some really fast thinkers here counting by tens sorting
or estimation sort by color sort by vehicles lots of estimation again some
data management skip counting amazing counting wheels Oh targets specific
interests of students to get out definitely so you've got differentiation
as as far as interest goes I'm not sure if you can see from here but the quantity varies depending on the side
that you choose as well as the organisation will differentiate as well
so you see the trucks and the cars are lined up a little bit more then say the dinosaurs that are scattered so you
might be using different strategies to work on the modes of transportation
versus say the dinosaurs themselves so that's wonderful so all of these parts
are laminated and the students are able to write on them and then race them sorry Kim go ahead always gonna say even
what MS said you don't necessarily hold card at one time you don't absolutely or shion's yeah for sure
definitely so in addition to lesson
Intervention Cards
cards there are also intervention cards and what we knew what we learned from talking to grade two teachers was that
some students needed a little bit more and so we've embedded 44 intervention cards that are designed as a lesson
themselves and you'll see that the structure is exactly the same but it's been designed to really target small
groups of students or pairs of students where they might need to work a little bit more on the concept of making ten
before they make groups of ten and so this will focus on prior learning earlier on in the developmental stage of
that understanding that you saw coming from the learning progression and so these intervention cards exist in the
kit as well organized by strand the same way that they would be just like the
learning progression another piece that we heard from grade 2 teachers was that
Math Everyday Cards
they wanted an opportunity to be able to revisit ideas over and over again to
help build that confidence and fluency in some cases for students so there are
22 math everyday cards they look like this they're double-sided they provide two to four activities for every cluster
and a cluster is kind of like a unit so there's a skip counting unit and so
you'd have four little activities that you could use that require minimal setup
and they can be done in five-minute bursts when you have a few minutes here and there to help build and revisit some
of those concepts and so if we think
about the little books and also actually the activity cards you've got the open access at home as well as mythology CA
and so I'll show you that here so if you go to Pearson Canada see a back slash at
home you may have already stumbled upon the little books and those are all
available with no login no password until June 30th and you can access the
k23 books in English and in French you can toggle back and forth in the top right hand corner to access all of those
stories as well as the parent information so all 72 of our stories are there and if you have a chance you can
go and check that out when we're done in addition we also have great one and two
Mythology CA
mythology CA so all of the books and all of the cards have been put into one
digital platform that we call mythology CA I'm gonna give you a walkthrough in
just a moment and so currently grade 1 & 2 is available and grade 3 is coming but
currently there is open access until June 30th so if you haven't had a chance to go check it out I recommend you do so after this so one
thing that we know is really important is that there's a series of books and activities but we want to know how does
it line up to the learning progression and how does it line up to the curriculum expectations or the outcomes for your individual province so on our
website at Pearson methyl UGA you're able to access all the correlations and
so here I just have a nap shot of a grade 1 but there's one for every grade and for every province and it's
available in a doc or a PDF and you're able to see the expectations the
activity kick the little books and the learning progression that's being meant by using some of those cards and
activities so let's go into mythology ta
Mythology TA
what we've done is like I said put all the books and all the cards in one place
and we've optimized it by giving you some support in these five core
functionalities the ability to search to plan to teach to assess and track and
for some professional learning and so all of those are available in one place
and so we'll just go into mythology ta now here
dismissal these all right so when you log in you come to this home page and
Search
this home page allows you to do searching in three different ways the first way that you can search is by
searching by a keyword so in this open panel I can type in any keyword addition
perhaps and hit search and then I can narrow it down by my grade grade to buy
a book an activity or a little book we have consolidation and intervention
lessons as well that I mentioned today I'm going to do an activity and by
strand we know many cards will address multiple strands like you noticed in that card that I showed you earlier but
I'm going to narrow down to number and so here I've got 23 results for addition
in grade two that's an activity in the number strand and so that's the first
way to search and you can scroll down you can see all of the activities here
the thumbnail you'll see it's a thumbnail of the actual card itself if there is no student card you'll see
some of the manipulatives or some of the student work that might accompany a lesson like this and you've got a little
about summary right there if I scroll back up to the top and go back home I
can search in another way today I'm in my account so my curriculum is going to be Ontario I'm going to
change the curriculum to grade two and you'll notice right off the bat I've got access to all three grades K 1 and 2 and
when grade 3 comes in September I'll have access to that as well this is really helpful for combined grade
teachers because you have access to the grades that you might need and so if I
drop down any of these overall expectations I see a little magnifying glass and I can click on the magnifying
glass and it will give me the five results that work on that specific expectation and I can see a little book
through the thumbnail and I can also see the activities that correspond to that
as well and if I'm not sure it also tells me in the tags this one's a little book and this one's an activity
so if I go back home the third way to search is by the learning progression
and won't spend too much time but here like I mentioned earlier it's organized into the five strands or for some
provinces it's for but you can narrow it down and here you'll see the same little
magnifying glass so if I click on the magnifying glass I can find any lessons that corresponds with naming sequences
and Counting for word and so I've got these activities and some of them are K some of them are grade two interventions
and some of them are grade one activities you can always take a look at the tag that's the best way to do it so
the other piece that you've noticed here is these little pins and as you saw when
I went through the lessons I was able to favorite an activity if I liked it and
it went into my favorites and here's where you're able to add a pin or remove a pin and so that's really helpful for
me because I can lay out my entire week and have it there on the front page so
today I'm gonna go in and use some of the stories that I've already talked to you about because it'll be a little more
familiar and make some more sense so I'll start with a little book here I'm gonna click on a rays bakery and all of
them are structured in the same way you first see the about and it gives me a quick summary of what the book is about
it gives me a reading level if I need it a math focus the curriculum expectations
here you see mine says Ontario but for yours it will say you're given province
the learning progression will be highlighted at the piece that's being
addressed by using that story so we're looking at two different pieces for this story in the details tab here you have
Details
access to the little book itself if I click on the story here comes the read
and an option which is another great way to be able to differentiate you saw the
reading level and for some students that might be a bit challenging or it might be just another way to think about the
story and so here all of the books have the option to listen to story so here's our muffin page I'll
give you a listen good morning arrey says mr. McGregor I hope you made your
famous muffins I want some for my meeting there will be nine of us your
muffins are so good that I'll get two for each person so here you have the
read option for those students that may need it you also have an activity that accompanies every one of these stories
so you have that in there as well there's some ideas for things to be thinking about as you share the story
you might be doing a read aloud or shared reading or if you're doing it virtually you might be reading the story
alongside the students in your class and here are some probing questions that you
might ask before you get going to get the students ready and thinking about
the stories in the related resources you have access to all of the line masters
that accompany this story so you'll see in a PDF and a Word document so I'm going to click on the PDF for example
there's always a connection to a home in school so this is the access to the parent letter that I mentioned earlier
on so here's the PDF version and so you have some suggestions for what a parent
might do or a guardian might do to help support further understanding of this story while they're at home and you can
share that store that line master with them just by downloading it the other
Versions
piece is the word version so if you want to you're welcome to modify it for the needs of the kids in your class another
way that's really great to help differentiate that learning and so we also have other different types you'll
see here there's some baking trays there's a grid game if I click on that there's an opportunity to play a game to
reinforce some of this some of this concept with your students they can play at home and if there's even problem
solving so you've got some problem-solving that accompanies every one of the stories as well and you've
got multiple versions that you're of course welcome to modify yourself but you can see the differentiation built in
here from having some visuals and a little more space to draw out some of your thinking
and then other examples where they might be using grid paper or doing it in a notebook and then sending it off to you
so all of those line masters are available for each one of those stories and you've got that there okay so that's
Questions
this story the little book and I know I've moved pretty quick so I'm gonna give you a chance if you have any
questions or maybe Kim if any questions came up before I go into the activity and that we can address before we move
there's just some questions about a grade tree but I think we've answered that and we'll talk more kind of about
the whole family to it at the end what may be interested in that that's all over now that's great okay sounds good but in the
meantime if you want to peek at some of the grade three stories the little books are already available in mythology ta
but the lessons themselves the activities will be coming in September
so laughing sorry yes of course will the
grade three webinar coming up be much like this session it would be very much like this session I will give you a
sneak peek of what the grade three lesson itself looks like but otherwise as far as structure goes it'll be very
similar but the grade three looks a little different in terms of the resources in terms of cards what's in
dossier it does and so we'll unpack how it's the same and how it's different from great to great thank you no problem
and about is there one copy of the class or does each student have access to the
little books so the little books you can share the digital version with them unless you purchase it in print and then
you can when you purchase the story you get five little books and one teacher guide and right now anybody can go in
and click on the digital version right Miranda yes so if you go to the at home
site you're able to take a look at all of the stories from k23 they're all available in that one spot
and you're welcome to use them until June 30th with the parent letters
accompanying each one of those stories so I'm not quite sure if Sheryl your
question is about the student the student cards how many copies generally they the copies of the little
books come five copies for like a small group shared and then a teacher's guide
and then she's talking about the cards so again at the end we've got a slide
that shows how many books how many cards in each of the grades yeah the research
per grade was different so that cards sometimes the amount of cards per grade might be different so we'll go over that
at the end too absolutely so I'm going to go into this grouping to count card because you're familiar with
what it looks like so it gives you a little bit of information again about the lesson its
structured the exact same way as a story and so as you scroll down you get access
to the curriculum that corresponds any processes or competencies that are being met by using this for a card like this
or a story and then the learning progression again highlighted but you can see easily where they're coming from
and where they'll be going to after they master this idea so if I scroll back up
to the top and go to the details tab here's a visual of almost exactly like
Details Tab
the card itself we've got the green panel at the top that indicates grade two all your line masters that are
necessary are right here up at the top again in PDF and Word you've got a your
lesson is all built in here before what to do and your consolidation some tips
for how to differentiate including that combined grade extension for those of you that have that combined grade we
mentioned what to look for things that you might be paying close attention to as your students engage in some of these
activities and the probing questions that you may ask and then the cards themselves that would be in print you've
got access to a digital copy of the card itself here so the front and the back of
the teacher card and then the student cards themselves are also available here you can see them all here and we talked
about interest so for those of them that like bugs you've got that here the dinosaurs for those that need additional
support you've got the ten frames in here as well and you've also got a completed version of what
one student might do and how other students might think about it so you've got that option in there as well and
then interactive tools so for some teachers that are connecting with their
students they might need a tool to model or show some of the pieces that you
might be talking about and so you've got an interactive tool there as well let me just jump back to the page so all
the things that you need really to help you teach that lesson are going to be in the details tab as far as assessment
Assessment Tab
goes I won't spend too much time but it's a copy of the back of the card just
in a digital format so you're able to upload your class I've used just made-up
names but I can load up my class I can click on a student when I see them
display this particular behavior and drop them in I can click on multiple students and drop them in at the same
time and I can add notes so perhaps I saw mark doing something really specific I can click and add a note about what I
saw in addition there's next steps we mentioned that there's next steps in the moment and so it gives you it a
suggestion for something that you might do to help move the students along that
progression and so here you've got the eight so you'd go across the top and then you move into the second layer
across the bottom and so it moves sort of along this pathway okay so that's the
assessment component and then the related resources so once you've taught the lesson and you realize that perhaps
Related Resources
some of my students just need a little bit more practice or they might need an intervention or they might need an
extension for some of those students in our class this is a great way to differentiate so if I drop down any of
them you'll see that there's a mini lesson itself that I might walk students through or I might provide them with
practice or I might do both that's up to the needs of the kids in your class you have that option the little print button
to print it out or to be able to use it with your students and so you've got the
extension here as well the mini lesson and the practice and so that's been really helpful to be able to
differentiate for the knees in classroom we also have possible misconceptions as well and after the
lesson so next steps in class you might not be using that so much these days but next steps at home absolutely here's the
parent letter version just like you had for the little the little books and
again a printable copy that you're able to share
you've got word wall words for some definitions and then of course the related lesson so once you've finished
that lesson you might go to another lesson that's related you've got a little the title there to help give you
a quick glance of what it is and then the arrows to help you move and if you need an intervention that'll be there as
well recommended lessons and then you've got the math everyday card to revisit this idea even further to revisit it
over and over again so you've got that in the digital version as well on the
right hand side you have the option for some professional learning that tucks away if you don't need it but it's
always there we have little videos that have been made to accompany each one of
the lessons we've got learning highlight videos and learning connexion videos the learning highlight video is going to
give you some support for the lesson itself so there one minute short videos
and I'll give you a little sneak peek of one of them right now how do your
students group to count do they choose the group size that is not easily skip counted for example seven then use a
hundred chart to skip count 7 14 21 and
so on or do they make
equal groups that they can easily skip counts for example groups of 5 5 10 15
and so on 275 do students realize the importance of including leftovers in the
count 76 77 78 79 how many different
ways of grouping do students find do they see that as the group size
increases the number of groups decreases do they realize that the total does not
change no matter how objects are grouped
[Music]
so for every one of the lessons you've got an accompanying learning highlight video that hovers around one minute each
time I'm not gonna go into the learning connexion video but I encourage you to go check it out yourself this is to show
an unpack how this idea develops over time and so it uses the learning progression and features books and cards
from k23 to show how that idea develops over time so you've got access to that
as well the last piece that I want to talk about is the planning component we know that it can be tricky to start but
we built some plans to make it easier for you we've got some samples in here that if you go into the plan the sample
plans will populate and here I'm going to use the grade to sample long-range plan of course there's different options
but I'm going to click on the sample long-range plan and if I decide that this is the one for me this looks pretty
good I see that it goes from counting to number relationships to patterns patterns again and it develops over time
if that looks pretty good to me I'm gonna use this as my sample plan name it
2020 2021 save it
and can actually adapt it for the way that
Changing the Sequence
I'd like so I'm able to adapt the sequence and so I might just drag and drop a book further down because maybe I
want to go book card card card book card card card just to switch things up or
maybe I want to change up the sequence because I'd rather work on perhaps
bridging tens after I work on counting forward so all I'm doing is I'm picking up the lesson and I'm dragging and
dropping it you see the little hand but another way is to use the arrows to go up and down here you see the pin that
will bring that to your front page as well and a new feature that we've heard from teachers they were wondering about
keeping track of what they've already completed and what they haven't and so we've added a new complete feature so if
I click on complete for these two and I go back to my counting you'll see the
count changed from 2 from 0 of 13 to 2
of 13 so I've completed 2 of those 13 lessons of course I'm welcome to delete
anything that I need to I can click clear all the lessons that have been completed and I can always change the
sequence so perhaps I want to start with patterns same thing drag and move it up
to the top but of course I can use the arrows as well my computer is a little tired today so it takes a second but of
course once it's good it will just move so I can use the arrows as well that's
another way to change it you just need to give it a second and it'll move another thing that you can do is add in
other lessons so perhaps there's something else that you want to think about at the same time as counting you
might be going into a skip counting pattern and so you might look for a patterning card you might scroll down
narrow it down to some patterning cards and so you can look at some of the patterning cards that you might want to
add into the mix of your counting sequence the other thing you can do is
add a non mythology lesson and so you're welcome to use lessons that you've tried
that are tried and true and you than before and you know and love them and your students do as well and you're
able to add them in this way into your plan once you've decided your plan is great and it works for you you can go
ahead and export it to a doc some people prefer to write notes outside of the
platform but you're welcome to write notes in here as well and you can also share it with a colleague that has
Sharing Patterns
mythology CA as well if I click on share I can type in the email address of my
colleague that also has mythology dossier and I can share the plan that I've built with them and so that's been
really helpful as well so I'm going to go back to home and I'll stop for just a moment and see if there's any other
questions Kim while I'm in here yeah so the one that just came up and maybe this
is a Patti question if we work on this now for next year and they would start planning but we're working on the free
trial will we lose it so that will
anything that you build right now and if you start it now it's associated to your email address so if you get access to it
in September it will all be there because it's associated to your email yeah so the free trial ends at the end
of June so if for some reason your board didn't purchase it but purchases it in
September then that your account can just be reinstated again yep exactly the question is how can they share with a
substitute oh um so the only issue is
that the substitute would have to have the your password so or they'd have to
have an account of their own so what I would probably recommend is use some of the options here that have a print
component I might share that with a substitute rather than sharing my password but if they have an account of
their own you're of course welcome to share with their email but I probably would stick to the stuff that's um
printable and I can leave that for a supply teacher so perhaps I leave this
card so that they're not having to login into my account Thanks no problem okay so let's go back
and I'm gonna give you a quick second to enter into the chat you saw a lot of
stuff I walked you through very quickly and I know many of you are brand new but I want you to think about one thing that
you saw that you think might be really helpful to you in mythology a it could be maybe engagement or flexibility or
any of the following or something else that you thought would be really helpful so I'm gonna give you a second to drop
into the chat what do you think might be really helpful to you in mythology dossier okay so we see the year plans
the assessment the videos again the long-range plans the assessment
especially the ease of observation the ability to combine grade expectations
yeah and pull them up and put them right in the plan together that is so easy to do planning and differentiation
customizing the plan again pre-made plans a lot of pre-made plans and
differentiation absolutely oh that's so good that did it's just user friendly
that's what one person is saying it's just user friendly that's awesome so I encourage you you'll probably forget half of what I've said but go in and
play around with it test it out try it change the plan adapt it that's the best
way to get to know it I can show you everything and we'll turn it off and in an hour
you'll help probably have the same question so I encourage you to go in and check it out that's the best way to learn it for sure so I'm gonna keep
moving I'm gonna do a quick recap we mentioned that the little books include an indigenous perspective the note from
Recap
the author to help incorporate some of those teachings are in the front cover
and they've been included on the at home site and you can check those out yourself we mentioned that everything's
French Immersion
been adapted for French immersion here you see the story kokum spanic has been adopted in french and the read and
listen option is available in the french story as well as the activity kit
in French as well here you have the option to search by keyword by
Learning Progressions
curriculum by learning progression you can even search by title if you're familiar with some of the print
components or you know the title of the book that you want to look for you can search just by looking for the title so
you've got that option there as well the planning tool lots of you mentioned you've got sample long-range plans you
Planning Tool
can add remove lessons you can download you can share with friends so all those options are in there as well as far as
Teaching
teaching goes you've got access to the mythology little books the projectable cards and the interactive tools you've
got the mini lessons that we mentioned and of course next steps at home that could be really useful during this time
Differentiation
differentiation of course there's too much to fit all on one page but of course all of the line masters are
modifiable you've got the option to read and listen to the story as far as the
activities go right on the card you've got how to differentiate in those three ways with an accommodation and extension
or combined grade tips but you've also got the option for mini lessons if you
want to dig deeper and you've got the intervention cards if you wanted to even
further into supporting those students in your class assessment many of you
Assessment
pointed out you've got options for the assessment I did not go into the analytics today but I encourage you in
the top right corner you've got analytics and it works on a red light green light system so you can see at a
glance how your class is doing but also how individual students are doing and this has been really helpful as you have
conversations with parents or support team meetings to help support the
students to see at a quick glance how they're doing based on all their assessments and then professional
Analytics
learning we've got those short just-in-time videos the one-minute videos to help you with every single
activity as well as the learning connexion videos that help you
understand how that concept develops over time and those sit at about five minutes
so mythology Dacia has got so much it adds up you've got access in da ta to
Mythology
all three grades come September of all the lessons currently you already have
access to all the little books they're already in there including very three in
English or in French the 72 little books you've got over a hundred student cards
that support those activities you've got over 200 professional learning videos
over 200 line masters that accompany all of those books and cards and even
interactive tools we've attached to each one of those lessons and so you've got a
value of over twenty-five hundred dollars for a hundred and forty dollars for one year so patty I'll let you speak
to the next slide oops face Brenda and
By Now and Sage
at this point we just want to share with you that we do have a by now and Sage until July 15th
if you're in the position or your school or district is in a position to purchase resources that would be that would be a
good time and you can see that for mythology ta it is 140 per teacher per year or 665
for five years so there's a bit of a savings there and we also have digital print options we're not sure what
back-to-school is going to look like but know that mythology has both digital and
print options and you buy mythology ta that opens up some discounts resources
math little books and the activity cards
perfect sorry right so grade three as I mentioned
Grade Three Tools
grade three is coming and it was field tested just this fall with teachers across Canada we had teachers from many
different provinces testing it out for us and so we classroom tested it to make
sure that grade threes still want activity cards the dry race cards that
they can write on we tested to make sure the little books still work mythology CA itself as well as the math
maps and so these are a series of tools that are used as students move through
each one of the lessons um they've got accompanying cards that we have that are
laminated that they can write on to help show their thinking and so here are all the components you got the 18 stories in
grade three the little books combination of fiction and nonfiction you've got
access to the mathematics like I mentioned and these math mats are going to be for grade three and created before
it's gonna incorporate any mats that they might need things like grids and you see a blank thinking space here
you've got number lines we've got closed ones and open number lines there's about 30 or so different math mats in there as
well and then again the double-sided differentiated cards to help encourage
some of that thinking and to support student learning in mathematics and so
you'll see that there and so if somebody mentioned earlier how many copies of each so if we look at the little books
you get one teacher guide and five little books if you get it in print and
if you get this in print you get ten copies of each card so ideally students
would work in pairs or you might have small groups of students working individually on them and then these are
sold in a coil bound booklet and so I'd
like to end off with showing you our Pearson mythology Twitter account we add
tips on there every week and of course teachers are always sharing what they love and what they've used and found
helpful for the on our Twitter account so please follow us and show us what you're using and so
Contact Information
our last little piece is who to contact for more information so if you're interested in finding out more here are
the names of your reps in your area you might take a second to either screen grab this page or take a photo and these
are who you will need to contact for more and so on behalf of me and Kym and Patti and anybody else who's there on
the line helping me out from Pearson thank you so much for joining us if you have any questions we'll be here for
about 10 minutes or so but Kym there might be some questions that came in just now that we can address yeah and
maybe this is a Patti questions we've had a couple questions about you know the cost for digital but then how much
for the little books how much for the kits yeah so what I would recommend
because there's so many different options and permian tations that you could be interested in focus on the
screen that you have see right now find your local rep and let them know what you're thinking open and they can help
you help support you with the different combinations and what that might look like and then the question comes in
where do I find the combined grade options so if you're in mythology say
you can search by one grade or another and so you might go in if you're a one
two for example and you have predominantly a grade two class or predominantly a grade one class you
might use the plans adopt the grade one plant and then bring in grade two
lessons along the way but that choice is up to you we know that combined grades have so
many different possibilities and so we haven't built a set grade a combined
grade option because we know there's so many options but I'd recommend using one of the grades and then bringing in the
opposite grade to help support that Zoey it also might be that the free version
you were able to register for one grade only once you purchase it you get all
the grades Wow yes I believe that prior I believe the trial you had to sign up
for but when you purchase you get access to all and then Miranda I do have the
survey Oh wonderful so Kim's gonna drop the survey in we've got another one
coming on Thursday we had a person who just asked that question will it be different of course it'll be structured
very similarly but I'm gonna talk about sort of the different components of grade three what stayed the same and
what's changed as a result of the research that we did with classroom teachers so I'll be walking you through
and showing you one of the sample lessons and also showing you some of the grade two that you have access to in the
meantime while you wait because I'd encourage you as a grade three teacher to explore the grade two because it will
be very
