so just a little bit of housekeeping first as Kim's mentioned if you have a
chance to introduce yourself in the chat that would be great I'm Miranda and I'll be guiding you through this webinar for
the next 45 or so minutes and Kim you're hearing her in the background and she'll
be monitoring monitoring the chat for me and just because I won't be able to do
both things at once so we're gonna really strongly encourage you to chat
and we want to hear what you have to say any thoughts you have any questions you have as we go along
Kim's mentioned that if you hover over the bottom that your chat option will come up and to make sure that you've
adjusted yours to all panelists and attendees that way everyone can see each
other so sometimes it says all panelists we just need to make sure that it says
all panelists and attendees so we're going to work our way through subtraction and really focus in on
different models that you could use and different problem types different tools
that you may use along the way I know that these are very different times and
so we're gonna talk a little bit about how you might leverage some of these materials and some of these tools if you
are interacting with your class from home or virtually and just thinking
about different ways to reuse some of the materials that you'll have access to so take a second to think about this
picture and do you see any subtraction situations let's use this as a test if
you see any subtraction in this image just go ahead and quickly put yes in the
chat if you don't you can go ahead and put no and I'll give you ten seconds
great people are just all putting yes in the chat yes yes yes yes yes okay fantastic
so did you see things like takeaway situations like the fans leaving the top
row so how many fans are left when once those top four people leave did you see
other takeaway situations like how many fans are not wearing red shirts it seems like this is a crowd of blue team
supporters but maybe you thought about it as a compare situation how many fan
how many more fans are wearing blue compared to those that are wearing red or how many fewer females than males you
might have been looking at that piece and I'm sure there are many more that you've thought of and today we're really
gonna focus in on the difference between the take away situations and compare situations as we go through but likely
no and when we're teaching students from k23 it's really hard to talk about subtraction without considering addition
so as we go through we will mention pieces of addition as we talk about
subtraction and we're going to use the learning progression as our way to guide
us through some of our thinking this image comes from one of our mythology little books it's a grade one book
called Canada's oldest sports and it's all about lacrosse in Canada and so I
mentioned using the learning progression then the learning progression is just a way to think about how students develop
in their understanding of particular topics it's organized by strand and then
it and then by big idea and then you'll have a series of conceptual threads and indicators and I'll show you what that
looks like the learning progression was developed in Canada by dr. Lynn McGarvey
at the University of Alberta so all the research has really taken into account
loss of different learning progressions as well as Canadian curriculum so it's going to reflect the curriculum that you
see in your province with your students so today we're really going to focus in
on that conceptual understanding of addition and subtraction so we're going to look at how it develops over time
between k23 and we'll begin with this idea of modeling those add to and take
from situations sitting in quantities up to 10
so we have Scott here and he works at a grocery store and this is very timely today because he's restocking you've got
some empty shelves with berries and he's getting some a cart ready for his
customers and they want five cartons of blueberries but he's wondering how many
cartons of raspberries you might use so take a second to just reflect and think about what your students might be doing
and also what Scott might be doing in his head to try and figure out how many raspberries he needs for his customers
you
how might he model these add to situations or even a take from situation when he's working with that
quantity of 10 so he using a 10 frame might be one way that he might have been thinking about it and you can see him
visualizing that 10 frame in his head so as you take a look at this ten frame
I want you to think about what that add to situation or the take from situation might look like do you have students
that might think about adding on to find that total they might put in the raspberries and then add on one two
three four five more blueberries to find out how many blueberry cartons he needs
or do you have students that start with the whole they put all ten they fill it
up with blueberry and then they trade out and they take away so that they can
fill up with some raspberries so thinking about ten frames using both addition and subtraction and knowing
their relationship together can really help students consider how to model
those add to and take from situations now these ten frame cards are available
in our activity kit and as we go through I'm gonna move between the activity
cards and the little books and I'll show you how to access all of those in the
next coming weeks and months with all of these activities we also have line
masters to accommodate and extend that thinking so I want you to take a moment to think about these two particular line
masters how might you use them to extend or to accommodate the learning of the
students in your class knowing that these two are available in mythology CA
I'll give you a chance to just put that into the chat pod how might you use either the berry game card or the line
master on the right with how many berries
you so this is Kim here so you might want to
think about how light you use it when you're back in class you might want to think about how might you use it now
either way it'd be great to have some of your ideas
you you
so we have one suggestion might be used at a math Center thanks
or another suggestion might be the line master nine could be used as an exit
ticket that's great these are some good ways to think about using these activities we're
gonna give you access to these line masters and you're gonna see opportunities to either grab on to some
of these to share with some of your students that might be working on making ten so you could have you could play the
very card game and for this particular game you'd have two people playing the
game where you'd flip over cards where you have the berries and you'd add the
sum and then you would decide which partner has more berries or maybe you
sent home some of the line masters to consider thinking about how many baskets you might be working on for subtraction
or for addition and Miranda both Jennifer and Diana had the same idea that you were just talking about
creating these great cards and maybe in ranek you talked about PDFs versus Word
documents absolutely so when we go into mythology I'm gonna show you how to access all of these as word and as PDF
all of them will be modifiable so if it makes sense for your class to either adjust the numbers either up or down or
you'll see there are some extension berries very cards where the numbers
will go a little bit higher to have your students work with bigger numbers we
also have all of this available in French so all of our stories our little books have been adapted for French
classrooms and they also have the line masters available for French classes as well
currently the mythology little books are available for grade 1 on mythology CA and we'll walk you through how to access
that later on so let's take a look at a
toy store you've got a shelf where kids can spend money and how might this help
you or your students to explore subtraction situations I'll give you a second to put in some thoughts into the
chat you
you you
so diana is saying making change like having our total amount in deciding what
can be bought and Kim is saying if you tell them that they have $10 they can subtract the items they may want to buy
awesome it's like you read my mind so what if I told you you have $20 so this would be working with whole numbers up
to 20 if I told you you have $20 and you could only buy one item what would you buy and how much money would you have
left so this comes from one of our grade two activities sitting in our activity kit and you have access to that
digitally as well so we could use a part
part whole mat so think about this idea of being able to use 20 as the whole and
identifying one item that you might buy in this scenario I've selected the Train
so how might students use the part part whole not to solve the problem so
Christina put in an idea here about they can use some of those ticket items for
open-ended math tasks too and so maybe what are some ideas of using those
open-ended tasks with this part part whole Matt absolutely mm-hmm
so what's really nice about this part part whole Matt is that you have the ability to think about both addition and
subtraction again at the same time you can start with the whole and take away the part in order to find the other part
or you can start with the part you know the Train and add on until you get to
that whole having kids work with this part part whole Matt really flexibly
allows them to think about both addition and subtraction at the same time so the
second part of our learning progression here is the ability to use symbols and equations to represent addition and
subtraction problems so at the very beginning students were thinking about modeling and now they're going to be
transitioning into the use of symbols and equations to represent both those situations so here we see both the
subtraction and addition opportunity this comes from one of our activity
cards I've just taken a second to increase what would the main part of the
activity be but what other questions might us Christina mentioned that you
might go a little more open and have them play around with the different
items that you could purchase but what other questions could you ask so maybe
we minute and quickly scan the type of task that is a suggestion when students are
working together but are there other questions you're thinking that might
also be helpful for your students so LMC
is 20 dollars and ask students to pick two items Oh excellent so you'd have two
parts and then a third unknown part which would be really great to extend some of that thinking with the part part
whole Matt what if I gave you some other
toy options you might have some maybe it's a clothing store that you go to and
you're purchasing items or maybe it's an equipment store these line masters are all available that we've talked about
both in PDF and in Word and with the toy money so that might be something that you send home for parents that might not
have cash on them these days or a pile of coins they might not have a coin jar or a coin collection like I have going
on so they might want to use some of those coins to really play this kind of store game at home and they cannot price
tags onto their own items so this teacher card like we mentioned oh sorry
go ahead I just gonna say Miranda it's great people are putting in some suggestions because everyone either currently has
access or after this will show you where you can have access to all these things and so it gives you ideas of yes this is
one idea on the teacher card but here your colleagues are giving you some maybe some other ideas you might not
have thought about on your own so thanks to those that are giving some great ideas for each other
fantastic so comes from our teacher card here you see some key ideas for what you might do in
a classroom as well as assessment supports when you think about subtracting money some behaviors that
you might be looking for as you get back into the classroom and these would come double sided so the ability to adapt
this for some of the students in your class that might need a little bit of accommodation that option is always
there for you so let's think about comparing when you think about comparing
I've used an image from our the one of our little books the great dog sled race
and this comes from a grade two book where they're tracking the wind speed over morning noon and night so what
might you compare and how could you model it we'll give you a second to put some ideas into the chat
so I think we're still on the some people are still on the money thing and some people are starting to work on this
one Miranda so that's great so people can read over some of those ideas if
they're helpful to you great take them on and it's great that you're continuing those ideas putting in the chat pod
absolutely especially with comparing money is a great way to think about comparing anything else you might do to
compare what we have up here some of that wind speed mhm
ELISA is saying you can compare the wind speed throughout one day absolutely so
for me I thought about the difference between morning to sunset so if I look at just day one what's the difference
between the wind speed in the morning versus the men's wind speed at sunset and I might use a number line I might
plot my sunset at my morning on the number line and then look at the difference between 29 and 38 I'm using a
number lines very powerful to help students compare and being able to go
over the ten for something like this when they're using 38 minus 29 can be
really challenging but when you label them on a number line it can be much more visually it can be a lot more
helpful to see it visually because that can help them more easily compare they can either count up or count back to be
able to see the difference between the sunset and the morning and so here this
part of our learning progression really focuses on the difference between modeling and symbolizing those different
problem types today we've been focusing on compare and the takeaway problems are
the separate problems but we've also talked about part part whole situations and I'm sure you can find some join
situations as well as we go throughout this ability to relate addition and
subtraction as an inverse operation is real powerful here for those students that
find it challenging to count back they can also count forward to be able to find the difference just the same again
we've got line masters here to accommodate and to extend the learning whether it be that they need a hundred
chart to help them with their thinking or a number line or maybe they need some challenges to go in and do some more
problems and show that our thinking in that way so do you see any addition and
subtraction problems here all together before I go in to show you where you can access some of these so first of all if
you do see them let's see some yeses yeah and these are their iPod let's start with the yeses once you see a
subtraction question just type that yes in and then go back and what is that
subtraction question what is the situation you are seeing and let's see
all the different situations that maybe some of our students might also see so
we see team scores
how much more money do we have to raise and another one says yeah the difference
between the score with its total money received number of people or excellent
so here it's a grave three book called the street party and they are throwing a
street party with all their neighbors and they've split all the kids into teams and their first two I think it's
500 wins the award for their street
party so they've raised money from each home and the cost of the party is gonna cost them seven hundred dollars and they
are gonna make some donations to the hospitals so getting kids to engage in
something like this really reminds them of things like a school play day or things like that that they might be
familiar with so getting kids to think about addition and subtraction problems here on the left-hand side we had
someone mentioned that you could either compare the scores or you could find out how many you can include how many points
team willow had and here students really can focus on that idea of commutativity
this property that it doesn't matter what order you add the numbers in you'll always get the same answer but when we
think about it in subtraction when we think about how much more money we need
that we can donate to the hospital sometimes students think about the community commutativity property being
able to apply in subtraction and so this is something that we really work on in
order to get them to better have a better understanding of what the hole is what the part is and what the unknown
part is in this case the donation to the hospital having them use a property like
the inverse operations will really help them solidify that understanding and so here we talk about the end of that
learning progression where students start to think about properties of addition and subtraction and they're able to apply them really fluidly and
and flexibly and so they're able to think about that can be commutativity
property in addition and know that it does apply in subtraction so I've shown you
some of these activities here that come from our little books and from our activity cards as well as the laminated
line masters for some of the models or the representations that you might use such as a 10 frame apart part whole mat
or number lines whether they be closed or no open as they relate to our
learning progression and so we'll take a deep we'll take a look into mythology ta
to see how you can access some of these activities mythology is a platform that houses all these little books and the
activity cards and it provides you with some really key functionalities the
ability to search easily to plan to teach to assess and track and some
professional learning so I'll go into there and I want you to keep in mind some of the things that you could leverage as you are at home and you're
connecting virtually with your students so in here right now the mythology
platform is a teacher tool for grade 1 and 2 lessons currently there are K
books in here as well that I'll show you how to access and then there are grade 1 lessons in mythology and you're welcome
to sign up for that and I'll show you how to register for some open access during this time of us being at home so
we'll start with the book that's 10 and so here you have the ability to search
for books or for cards just by using keywords so maybe I might search for
money and see what comes up and I'll have some results this might look familiar at the toy store sitting in
here and I can narrow it down to grade 1 or grade 2 and I can also narrow down by
activity or if it's a book that I'm looking for and also by strand I may
also go in by curriculum you might know exactly what you're trying to address these days and so you might go in by
curriculum go into perhaps operational sense go into add and subtract money amounts to ten and you'll have some
results you can access right now Maranda can you talk about the different curriculums for the different
provinces absolutely so currently I'm in the Ontario teacher platform but when
you register you can register with your individual provinces and this will adapt the curriculum to the province to
reflect what you need so right now I'm in grade 1 but I could also be in grade 2 and that will change depending on what
province you're in alright so when I search I can decide that I love lesson
and I can heart it or make it one of my favorites and so I've got some favorite lessons here and you've noticed that
I've pinned a few of them to my front page here I have some of my lessons pinned to the front page so when I go
into my little book at quick glance you'll see what the books all about what
the focus is going to be as far as mathematics goes and the tag that's going to be in here
we've also attached a reading level to it in case you want to send some of these stories home and I'll show you
where some of these stories will be you've got curriculum links as well as
the processes that are being addressed by reading a story like this as well as
the piece of the learning progression that it's working on in this case the model modelling add to and take from
situations that we talked about earlier on when you go into details you have
access to the book itself when you click on the book there's the read and listen
option we know for some of our readers that reading some texts can be a little
more challenging than others so we always have the read to option and that students can access without a login or
password and so I may actually have to take off my headphones just a sec he
likes his customers today there is a sale on berries and so for each one of
these stories you're able to access those books as well as an activity that will accompany each one of these stories
that you can access on here again same rules apply if the student is
needs the instructions to be read out to them they have the Play feature
and then they can play some of the activities there's always a note to teachers and to parents to help support
that at this time the other piece that I want to show you is the related resources and we talked about getting
access to the line masters both in PDF and in Word that would all be modifiable so if I go down to the berry card game I
can look at the word document open it up and I have the cards here ready to
either extend or make available for some of my parents and students that are working at home and then of course as
you work in the classroom and then we have some related lessons so where you
might go from here accompanying all of these is going to be a learning connexion video and this video will give
you a short snapshot of how ideas develop for addition and subtraction as
they leave the books and the cards together so give you just a quick listen
for that
how many muffins do you see did you count add or multiply
in this video we'll explore the learning pathway for the big idea quantities and
numbers can be added and subtracted to determine how many or how much outlined
in Pearson's learning progression several mythology resources such as this grade two little book supports students
in developing understanding and fluency position and subtraction two important
concepts in this big idea our developing conceptual meaning of addition and subtraction in fluency and computation
students begin by modeling add to and take from situations all right so you've
got a sense of what that might sound like so for every one of our little
books you're gonna have access to those learning connection videos and so I'm just gonna go back home to take a closer
look at one of our activity cards so those are our little books and of course you can always search just by little
books you can go by any grade and limit it to little books so for those K
teachers in here you're able to access those K books in one place and you're able to see quickly what those books
might be all about now I'll go into the
activity card and here you're going to see it's structured very similarly at
the very beginning you'll see what the lesson is all about what the math focus is going to be and what content
knowledge they might need before entering into this lesson as well as the
learning progression that's being highlighted where they're coming from and where they're going to in the
details you'll see access to all of the PDF and Word documents that you can
download so if I wanted that play money I could click on the PDF and I have all
the money with the bills as well accessible that I can download and then
maybe attach to either classroom or a place that you're communicating with parents all of the
instructions will be here as well as some questions you might ask when you're in the classroom with your students
you've got access to the teacher cards and the assessment all printable from
here as well as the activity cards now know that if they're purchased in print they're laminated and double-sided but
they're printable from mythology CA as well the other piece here is the
learning highlight video so it's going to give you some suggestions of what to do in a quick one-minute video and these
are accompanying all of our activities in grade 1 and in grade 2
quick sense of what that's all about what item can purchase with $20 no
matter what I choose I will have less money left and savings so if I want to
spend the least amount possible I will choose the book how can I pay for the
book I can pay with a $5 bill and I will get two dollars and change
or pay with a $10 bill and get $7 and changed or I could pay with a loonie and
a tuning and get no change how can I find how much money I have lost in
savings I can count what's left I can count back from 20 19 18 17 I can
subtract 20 minus 3 is 17
to consolidate have students create their own items to sell at the toy store
and label each item with the price less than $20 which two items could students
fine with their savings all right so to
accompany each one of the lessons you can actually upload your entire class you can name them whatever you like to
ensure privacy of students these are all made-up names but as you observe some of
these behaviors and strategies that students are just playing you can highlight them drag and drop them into
each one of the boxes oh sorry let me minimize my screen there you can drag
and drop them into the box or you can highlight them and click and add them into the box as you see them displaying
each one of those behaviors there's immediate next steps in there for you to help you move those students along we
also have many lessons available both as interventions printable as well as
extensions for those students that are ready to move on to something more challenging and we also have the
possible misconceptions that kids may encounter as they work with this activity particularly here in the next
steps at home this might be something that you can accompany with either line masters or the store or the image and
you can print that out there as well we've got word wall words and of course some related lessons that will help
support some of that thinking as you go on to the next topic so that's the
teaching component so far we've looked at how to search how to teach how to
assess professional learning that sits in the drawer and now planning so most
of you are probably well underway and know exactly where you want to go next but for those of you that are looking
for a place to start you can go into the plans we also have long-range planners that are already pre-built or you can
build your own I'm going to use the one sample long-range planner and we have different options as we know that
different people work through different ideas in different ways and I am just
gonna call this Miranda's plan 2020 save
it and as soon as I adopt this plan I can actually change Brown on the sequence I might want to do 2d shapes
right up front and then work on repeating patterns and that will just move if my computer wasn't delayed it
would move so now we have two DS right
up at the top you can make notes as you go along and change the titles if you'd
like and we can go into operational fluency for March and see some suggestions of things that you might do
with your grade one's different ways to think about problems both with part part
holes and the doubles of number lines different ways to address some of those ideas so that's in there with plans all
these plans are shareable and you can export them to a doc you can share them
with other people that have mythology dossier accounts the last piece is the
analytics I will go to in depth here today but know that it gathers all the analytics
for both your class and for individual students here it works on a red light green light system where you see at a
quick glance what your class is doing really well on what you need to spend a little bit more time on and what needs
some more attention you'll notice that this reflects the back of the card that you've seen earlier and this blue is
highlighting or indicating where the majority of your students are sitting as for the student view you can see a
particular student narrow down exactly what they're working on perhaps with a curriculum view and you can see that
I've done eight assessments under quantity and relationships and those that is how he's doing
and as for patterns and relationships then you can see at a quick glance how
he's doing with that and it will help for conversations either with parents or
with other people at the school all of these you can export and for your very ease so that was a very
quick walk through of Mythology Sienna of course we are having upcoming webinars if you want a more in-depth look at how to navigate this platform
just a recap of what's available in grade one we have English and French both with 101 activities that are
available as well as 34k and grade 1 mythology little books regardless of
what grade you sign up for you will have access to all the different grades so if you sign up and register as a grade 1
teacher you will have access to all the K books as well as all the grade 2 books and same goes for the activities all of
it is built on the learning progression and all of them come with professional learning videos grade 3 is coming in the
fall as well it was great to French grade 2 French is coming in the fall as well any questions about mythology CA
I'll pause for a quick moment and if you have any questions that we can answer right now
feel free to place it in the chat and we will answer them as best we can so it's
a lot of information when it comes to thinking about both you know using it has content knowledge through the idea
of subtraction and then finding out all the pieces in the platform but if you have any particular questions now that
we can address we'd be glad to do so
all right feel free to put them in as you go if you think of something and Kim can help you answer it as we go so just
a quick recap we have 72 different mythology little books ranging from K to
3 both in English and in French we have activity kits both grade 1 and grade 2
available in print both in English and in French as well as grade 3 coming in
the fall in mythology CA currently we have that you have access to the K books
grade 1 books grade 2 books you have access to grade 1 activities and grade 2
activities and grade three is coming in the fall and you might be familiar with some of
our professional learning resources we talked about the learning progression today and that's what most of this is
built upon some of that research grade three in the fall we did classroom
testing in order to determine what exactly our grade three materials would look like and they have been really
field tested to encourage that student gauge mint to really work on the addressing the diversity of
understanding that you have within your classrooms to really remove those time constraints we really wanted to support
with planning making sure that it was all aligned to Canadian curriculum and
developing lessons that were developmentally appropriate for those students it addresses all curriculum
expectations across Canada as it was built here in Canada and tested in
Canadian classrooms all to encourage a growth mindset in mathematics the grade
3 components will include mythology little books which come with teacher guides as well that you can access in CA
you also have the math mats those different laminated boards that students
can use to show their thinking and feel free of any mistakes that they might be
making as they as they show their thinking and then also an activity kit that will include double-sided laminate
cards to work on differentiation for some of our students know that all of
this is available for a one-year subscription for a hundred and forty dollars per teacher or a five-year
subscription for six sixty five and like I mentioned before you'll have access to combined grades when you register and
for now I'm going to show you how to register right now for some open access during this time where we're all trapped
virtually again bundle pricing is available when you purchase pieces together so currently we have 90 day
free access so that'll take you almost till the end of the year I'm pretty sure right to the end of the year for grade 1
and grade 2 mythology CA grade one in French grade one and two in English K of
course can access that as well and grade threes coming in the fall you can access all of this at pearson mythology CA the
same place that you registered for your free webinar and if you want more details about mythology and you want a
little bit more in depth I know I went very quickly and you want more information you can register for a free
webinar there we also have correlations we've logged everything like we
mentioned to the curriculum so all of the curriculum expectations all the specifics are going to be in there you've got access to all the line
masters and some sample plans and even some tutorial videos that you can access here at Mythology about CA the other
piece that's available right now for parents at home are going to be the little books and so we're releasing two
little books every week and I'll show you what that looks like so I could get
to it so if you go to Pearson Canada dot see a back slash at home you have access
to mythology little books in both English and in French with read aloud and activities for k23 parents that's is
really a parent component although you're welcome to access it and then pass it on to some of the parents that
you're connecting with this place also has the access to the 90 day for you for
grade 1 & 2 teachers so when I go in here to the K to 3 we have English and
French texts available and we've released two books every week you'll see that math focus is just above
the title and then a letter that you might send home and connect with parents so it'll give them some suggestions of
how to use the book with some possible line masters that accompany it so that's
all available and accessible right now at Pearson sorry at Pearson Canada dot
see a at home so Kim's going to just
post the survey question into chat pod or maybe Patti can do that for me yeah I
can put that in in just a minute so you perfect so I'm gonna keep going we
really value your feedback we're always doing these webinars we've got another one next week we've got another one
tomorrow night for mythology CA and of course your feedback helps us make it
better for you and for others so if you're looking for more information
about purchasing please take a snapshot of this of all your contact names and
you can reach out to them if you have any further questions but we really value that feedback and if you have a
chance to do so we would love for you to put in some of your ideas in there of
how we can support teachers especially at this time using either the virtual
platform or connecting with parents through some of those little books so
thank you so much for joining me tonight I hope you had a chance to think about
different problem types that you might present to your students as well as some models that you might use when you're
with them and even when you're apart and if you have any suggestions again please let us know and thank you so much have a
wonderful evening it would be great if you could just spend two minutes to put your ideas in the chat pod because
depending on how things go we may be offering more webinars like this and we
can offer them according to what you need and so if you can put that in that would be really helpful for us and real
helpful for your colleagues that might sign up for a further webinar so again thank you for spending some time with us
for participating in giving your ideas to others and working for your students
so thanks again and have a great evening
