HCMS Math Approach Instructional Design Principles
• Focuses on the Mathematical practices • Focuses on how students learn, think, and apply mathematics
Daily Lesson Approach
• Lessons are structured to provide students with various opportunities to reason, to model and to expand on explanations about mathematical ideas.
• Within each lesson, questions, instructions and worked examples are interleaved to engage students as they develop their own mathematical understanding.
![Page 7: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
HCMS Math Approach Math Resources- Carnegie Learning • Instruction built for conceptual understanding and mastery• Contain meaningful math content to support a collaborative,
student-centered classroom.
Components of the Resource • Real-World Situations focused on problem-solving • Student Practice Skills • Student Assignments • CCSS aligned curricula• Multiple Learning Styles• Write-In Textbooks

Curriculum Updates• This year all science teachers will be incorporating additional
problem and inquiry based learning labs for students. This includes a focus of integrating existing science standards that build interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
• Students will no longer be required to create a science fair
project outside of the classroom. Instead, teachers will focus on developing and exploring the scientific method through classroom based activities and projects.

Science Club 2014-2015
This year all 7th and 8th Grade students will have the opportunity to participate in a Science Club. The focus of the Science Club will be the development of a Science Fair Project. Students will have the opportunity to create a science fair project and explore other topics related to the field of science. The Science Club will meet before and after school. Additional information will be forthcoming.

Grading
Hickory Creek Middle School has adopted the following guidelines for reporting grades for the
2014-15 school year.
75% = Summative25% = Formative
• Use of PowerSchool
![Page 15: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Outcome Assessments
• Will be given in ELA and Math on a quarterly basis
• Determines how students perform in relation to grade level expectations
• Necessary for teachers to help understand what targets need to be addressed
• Communication tool between home and school

Top Ten Tips
from formerSeventh Grade Families
![Page 21: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
10. Set expectations.
Realistically and specifically, guide your student with academic growth goals.
Realistically and specifically, guide your student with behavior goals.
![Page 22: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
9. Ask to see the student planner.
This is a life skill that will pay off now and for many years to come!
![Page 23: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
8. Have your student check the
“Teacher Pages”.
Students can show and share this with you.
![Page 24: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
7. Check PowerSchool with your student!
Seventh graders need to be the leaders in their education…even if you need to give them a little push to the
front of the line.
![Page 25: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
6. Model!
Share your calendar and upcoming events and obligations.
Explain your plan for accomplishing your tasks.
![Page 26: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
5. Reflect. Why was this
task/test/presentationsuccessful
ORnot so successful?
![Page 27: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
4. KISS!!!(Keep It Simple and Short!!!)
We all know when we’ve goofed up, and we usually know why.
“This action results in this consequence.”
![Page 28: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
3. Teach advocacy!
Everyone’s ultimate goal is for the student to express what they need to be successful.
Have your student practice this with their Air Force team teachers. We support students who speak for their education!
![Page 29: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2. Talk about school everyday!
(“Tell me one thing you learned in science, math, social studies, E.L.A.,
and Encore.”)
Share something you’ve learned today.
![Page 30: Welcome to Team Air Force 7 Mrs. Donovan Mrs. Klutcharch Mrs. Wilson](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dc05503460f94ab4422/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
1. Celebrate!!! Seventh grade is challenging!
Offer a pat on the back when you know it is deserved.
