Welcome to our annual fall mathematics conference! The theme, Staying Ahead of the Curve, offers many opportunities for our diverse array of presenters from across the state as well as from our neighboring states. As we consider the many challenges and avenues from which we can make a difference in the teaching of learning of mathematics, we know that networking with other educators spurs our ideas and creative thoughts toward enhancing and authenticating our own practice. At a time when we are endeavoring to measure student growth, integrate the mathematics practices, and incorporate the standards, educators are challenged to provide the optimal opportunities for our students to lean and realize the use of mathematics in our everyday lives. It is too easy to narrow the focus and become shallow in our approaches in an effort to

“cover” all of these curriculum directives. How are we able to orchestrate this optimal level of learning in our classrooms from K-16 levels of learning? This is the reason to attend this conference! Discussion of how others are breaking though with ways to achieve these successes will energize our own practices and help us realize wonderful exercises of making mathematics relevant to our students. Our guest speakers are highly qualified to offer their expertise and tips for how to increase the interest and enjoyment of mathematics learning. Our keynote speaker, Zalman Usiskin, brings many insights from his authorship, faculty service, board memberships, and multiple speaking engagements. Our features speaker, Jennifer Bay-Williams, shares many years of experiences noted with awards, board services, professorship, and presentations. Our program committee has been preparing for months to provide a diverse scheduling of presentations to meet all o the levels represented. Come with expectations for learning a variety of ways you may examine and enhance your teaching of mathematics n your own classrooms. Enjoy two days of networking with “new” friends who share the same needs, questions, and challenges. Come ready to discuss your understanding of the content for which we all carry a passion. Many vendors look forwarding to sharing their resources and equipping you for rich classroom experiences.

SUNDAY

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon 1

1. Mathematics…more than just rules and procedures— Sam Wysong [G]

From an early age, students are taught that math is about memorizing facts and following rules. While these are part of mathematics, they should be the ends students reach after finding patterns and making sense of problems (the true beauty of mathematics). In this session, we will explore teaching math differently to build conceptual understanding. One approach is to teach "backwards" by starting with the problem and helping students understand that math is more than computation. Students have more buy-in when they WANT to know a rule or formula. As educators, we should strive to help students make sense of the world around them, not just memorize facts because we did!

Sunday at 1:00 PM in the Salon 2

2. Developing modeling and activities for MS— Cheryl Periton [MS] During a two week summer school for middle school STEM teachers run by Notre Dame/ Gary CSC and funded by a two-year teacher quality grant from ICHE, middle school mathematics teachers were introduced to the use of modeling and rich mathematical activities. Undertaking a range of activities and then discussing their own mathematical learning, together with ways in which such activities could be utilized within their own classrooms and the ways in which such activities still meet the state standards led to the teachers considering the ways in which active participation of students leads to understanding. In this presentation, some of the teachers will discuss the impact of the summer school upon their own learning and will consider the ways in which the work has impacted their practice.


3. Can you find the hidden treasure? - Jessica Stanton, Julie Evans [HS] Our students are tasked with hiding a treasure at a famous landmark, then creating clues to try to lead others to find their treasure. They do this by creating a system of linear inequalities and a system of linear equations. We have incorporated the use of iMovie and Google Maps within our task. Come join us to see if you can find the treasures!


5. Math Teacher Leadership in Indiana —Sheryl Stump [HAMTE]

The HAMTE EMS Task Force has been studying the issue of elementary mathematics specialists for some time now. We will present the results of our surveys, describe the conference we held in March, and discuss our plans for moving forward. Anyone who is interested in the issue of mathematics teacher leadership is welcome to attend this session!

SUNDAY

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon A 6. It’s time to teach division (sigh): BOTH types of division! - Lauren Rapacki [E, M] Did you know there are two types of division? In this session, teachers will explore and uncover the mathematics behind the Indiana Academic Standards, specifically “partitioning” and “sharing” division (3.C.3 & 3.C.4), and how this “small division” knowledge is directly related to the conceptual understanding of “larger” division strategies, like partial-quotient strategies (a place-value technique), using base-ten block strategies (4.C.3 & 5.C.2), and ultimately the standard computational algorithm for multi-digit division (6.C.1). The work of this session will equip the participants with the appropriate language, types of questions, and sample tasks needed in our classrooms to support the development of both types of division.

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon B

7. Twenty-five Things Students Must Know To Succeed in College Mathematics —Adam Zollman [E] Beginning with misunderstanding with operations, algebra, trigonometry and calculus, here are the 25 math concepts students MUST understand to be prepared to succeed in college mathematics.

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon C

8. Coming out of the Ivory Tower: Enhancing student learning by co-teaching with Ipads and Swedish Fish—Jennifer McCain [E, HAMTE] Participants will engage in activities that were used in a second grade co-teaching environment. iPads for technology integration and Swedish Fish for hands-on activities to enhance instruction. Several different co-teaching methods were used during this time. A presentation of those strategies as well as a "make and take" of the math strategies will be done.

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon D

9. Let's play games -Keith Chew, Pam Harper [MS] In this session, attendees will actively participate in playing three games aimed at enhancing students’ number sense. Two veteran mathematics teachers will demonstrate how to implement these games to promote students’ learning in the mathematics classroom. The two teachers will also discuss how these games could be used for students at grade level or above grade level to develop their understanding of number sense. Be prepared to learn and play these games!

Sunday at 1:00 PM in Salon E

10. ISTEP Online Calculator: Pro-Actively train your Students on the ISTEP Calculator — Jan Mitchener [M, H] ISTEP test prep information with using the same calculator that will be offered in the online version of ISTEP.....it can't get any better than this! This session will focus on how teachers can help their students be familiar with the online calculator before the ISTEP test. Tips and tricks will be shared with teachers that can be used on the Calculator Emulator for student instruction prior to the ISTEP exam. Participants will receive the Smartview Emulator to use in their classroom.

Sunday at 2:15 PM in the Salon 1

11. Math In Your Feet —Malke Rosenfeld [G]

We know kids love to move—there is a developmental imperative at play that can’t be ignored. How can we harness this innate playfulness in ways that move our students, literally, toward conceptual understanding of elementary math? Learn how the whole, moving body can be a tool for doing & learning mathematics in deep and engaging ways.

SUNDAY


12. Probability With Pizzazz—Rick Hudson [M, H] In this session we will explore how to use examples from social media and game shows to engage students in thinking about probability.


13. Lessons to Differentiate Instruction for Middle School Students—Robin Jones [MS] The purpose of this presentation is to communicate about differentiating mathematics instruction for middle school students. Presenters are classroom teachers and researchers. The teachers will share lessons they developed and implemented with their students, highlighting strategies such as providing students choices through parallel tasks and menus, as well as tiering instruction. The teachers will suggest how they would further develop their lessons, since developing skills at DI is an on-going practice. Discussion will focus on common features of DI such as the importance of conducting pre-assessments, focusing on students’ thinking, and using anchor activities. Participants will be encouraged to share their experiences of and questions about DI. Stacy Arnold, Anita Mendis, Patricia Walsh, Amy Hackenberg


14. Teaching and Assessing Math in a Digital World—Patti Duncan [M, H] Students need a deeper understanding of math to be successful in today’s world. This session will focus on practical instructional strategies and a variety of digital tools that school leaders and classroom teachers can use to help students become deeper mathematical problem solvers and thinkers.

Sunday at 2:15 PM in Salon 8 15. Creating and implementing math field day—Ron Benbow [HAMTE] This session, intended for both university faculty and high school teachers, will describe a new and ongoing partnership between the mathematics departments of Indiana Wesleyan University and Taylor University to foster school-community relationships and math literacy for all students. The project involves planning and hosting an annual Math Field Day for area high schools. We will discuss the challenges involved in organizing these events and in selecting appropriate activities for students and offer tips for creating a successful event. Attendees of this session will see (and perhaps engage in) some sample activities that we have used. Feedback from HS students and teachers will be discussed as well as the changes we would like to make in the future. Participants will have opportunities to share their efforts with Math Field Days or similar events. Melissa Lindsey, Indiana Wesleyan University

Sunday at 2:15 in Salon A 16. Algebra Readiness—Renate Zavesky [E]

Sunday at 2:15 in Salon B

17. Modeling with GeoGebra —Jose Contreras [HS] In this presentation, participants will use GeoGebra as a strategic tool to gain insight into modeling and solving geometric problems. Problems to be investigated include the classic buried treasure problem and Fermat’s problem.

13

SUNDAY

Sunday at 2:15 PM in Salon C 18. Computer Science for Kids: Introduction to Logo, the Programming Language for Developing Mathematical Thinking—Brian Schack [G] Logo is a computer programming language appropriate for young children. It was developed to help them think logically and mathematically. The original version was developed for children in the 1960s, at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Since then there have been many versions based on improvements in technology, and experiences using it by teachers and students. Now there is a new a version that runs in your computer's web browser. This version is also compatible with mobile devices such as the iPhone and iPad. This presentation will demonstrate how to get started programming in Logo, and we will discuss its application for teaching and learning. Participants do not need a computer, but some may wish to bring a web-enabled device (iPhone, iPad, laptop, etc.) to try writing simple code for creating interesting graphics. Mark Schack , Morehead State University


19. Uncovering the Mathematical Power of the Rekenrek (a mathematical tool for learning) - Lauren Rapacki [E] In this session, teachers will make a rekenrek (a.k.a., a number rack) and explore the mathematical potential for student’s number sense development (e.g., one-to-one correspondence, subitizing, etc.), computation skills (e.g., the four operations and their relatedness, in content/word problems, etc..) and algebraic thinking (the communitive and distributive properties will be explored) when using this tool. Teachers will watch videos of students using this tool and get ideas for lessons. Access to an electronic version will also be supplied.

Sunday at 2:15 PM in Salon E 20. Leprechauns Marshmellows and Cookies—Deborah Mink [E] This hands-on, standards-based session will focus on number sense, geometry and data analysis and will feature teacher candidates from Indiana University Southeast. The teacher candidates will be sharing classroom tested lessons from their math and literature projects for K-6 students. The session will feature how a high school math classroom teacher uses extended questions techniques in her classroom during the modeling activities. Participants will see examples of ready to use activities and have time to try out the technique with each other in student and teacher modes. Teacher Candidates


21. Modeling in the Math Classroom—Leah Simon [H] Teacher participants will hear, see and practice math modeling in a high school classroom featuring algebra and geometry skills. Modeling in Math uses 4 components: 1. Verbal descriptions; 2. Algebraic/Computation/Geometric ideas; 3. Data displays and analysis; and 4. Graphical representations for the visual learners. Besides these 4 components, students use communication skills, problem solving strategies and team work. Shari Millikan

24. Real World Math Problems—Lori Hochstetler

[E]

Real World problem solving is prevalent in the Indiana Math Standards. Where do we find these problems and how do we incorporate them in our math lessons? How can we bring situations from our lives into the math classroom? How can we bring other cultures into our math classroom? Find answers to these questions and more as you hear how this presenter created math problems from her experiences on a trip to India. Take away real-world problems from several resources that you can use with your K-6 students.


25. HAMTE Advocacy Task Force—Gina Borgioli-Yoder [HAMTE] The HAMTE Advocacy Task Force recently formed three advocacy committees focused on PreK-12 Curriculum, Mathematics Teacher Recruitment, and Teacher Licensure Testing. Our goals for this discussion session are to: (1) gather information from attendees on the role they believe HAMTE should play in issues of advocacy and the practices in which we currently engage (or not); (2) generate discussion about any living contradictions (D’Ambrosio, 2014) we unearth; and (3) make recommendations for concrete ideas for action each advocacy committee might take to address those contradictions. Sheryl Stump, Ball State University

Sunday at 3:45 PM in Salon A

26. Teaching for Misconceptions? - Lauren Rapacki [E]

When you teach students the standard computational algorithm for subtraction do you say, “you can’t subtract the bigger number from the smaller number so you must borrow?” When teaching fractions, would you expect your students to say ½ is bigger than ¼? Is a four-sided shape with equal sides and four right angles a square in your classroom? Teachers will explore questions like these and how the language we use (and teach students to use) can unintentionally develop future math misconceptions or impede conceptual (and later procedural) understanding. A learning trajectory of the K-5 standards (e.g., geometry, fraction knowledge, etc.) will naturally be explored and teachers will leave with a better understanding of their important role in the learning trajectory of the topics explored. While participants strengthen their content knowledge through the discourse of the questions, they will develop the ability to tweak their language in the teaching of specific skills so as to not teach for misconceptions.

Sunday at 3:45 PM in Salon C 28. Mastodon Math Mentors —Betsy Berry [HAMTE] Imagine a team of IPFW student volunteers mentoring individuals or teams of underachieving K-5 children who have negative views of mathematics at a nearby Title 1 Elementary School. Mastodon Math Mentors Making Math Meaningful (M6) is the project that is making this image a reality. This session will present the mentorship program that provides IPFW elementary education students the opportunity to participate in a variety of meaningful and beneficial experiences with mathematics instruction. Their volunteer work ranges from providing individual instruction to small group instruction to whole group support. It is the hope of this project that IPFW elementary education students will gain valuable experience and understanding of how to teach mathematics at the elementary level, and experience a change in their attitudes about teaching mathematics. This project also seeks to provide the participating classroom teachers with additional support during mathematics instruction, and collaborative, long-term partnerships with IPFW elementary education students. The IPFW volunteers also provide the K-5 children with increased attention while they are learning mathematics in order to enhance their achievement and enjoyment of mathematics.

Kaitlyn Biere, IPFW Student

Sunday at 3:45 PM in Salon D 29. Momentum for Rigor—Don Balka [G] Moving forward with our Indiana Standards will significantly change student learning in mathematics by dramatically changing how teachers teach. Transforming classroom instruction will involve an expectation for mathematical rigor, an elusive term. What is rigor and how do we implement it in the mathematics classroom?

Sunday at 3:45 PM in Salon E 30. Make Your Class Engaging with the Desmos Activity Builder—Kyle Kline [MS/HS] Over the past year Desmos has made tremendous improvements to its already fantastic program!

57. A Wider Catwalk for Struggling Learners:

Changing Thinking Around Modeling

—Nicole Caulfield [E, M]

Why do some students master a concept in a single lesson, while others never seem to understand? This session highlights the beginning of one district’s journey to develop young mathematicians

by understanding their thinking. Come learn how we’ve changed the conversation around what our students can and can’t do. A student’s ability to model reveals their depth of conceptual understanding. However, teachers are often ill-equipped to support students’ development and use of various modeling strategies. Participants will learn how to create conditions for struggling students to begin attaining deep, conceptual understanding through modeling, and then use it to move towards more abstract, efficient strategies. By eliciting students’ thinking, we promote active engagement for all learners. We will address how teachers can illustrate children’s mathematical thinking and design classroom instruction that builds on it. This includes: children can solve problems using their intuitive understanding and known strategies. Teachers’ responses to students’ natural approaches can either fuel or extinguish understanding. Understanding how struggling learners, and learners in general, approach challenges when problem solving informs next instructional steps. Nicole Caulfield, Brian Dinwiddie, Holly Gentry

Monday at 10:00 AM in Salon E

58. Engaging Tasks for Motivating Mathematics—Ryan Skinner [M, H] We will engage participants in a task focused on proportional reasoning that motivates the use of mathematics in real life contexts.

Monday at 11:15 AM in Salon 8 63. Constructing Mathematical Arguments: The Design of Accessible Algebraic Tasks for All Students —Yi-Yi (Wimmie) Ko [HAMTE] Algebra serves as a gatekeeper to students’ future mathematics learning opportunities. However, students’ difficulties with algebra are well documented. In addition, typical textbooks’ algebraic tasks provide limited opportunity for students to construct mathematical arguments. Designing accessible tasks is one way to support all students in developing their conceptual understanding of algebra through constructing mathematical arguments. In this session, participants will be provided an opportunity to modify traditional tasks aimed at supporting all students to reason algebra and construct arguments in a meaningful way. Participants will then compare and discuss the affordances between traditional textbooks’ tasks and revised algebraic tasks. Presenters will also discuss how teachers can engage in modifying textbook’s tasks to support all students’ meaningful learning of algebra through constructing mathematical arguments. Justin D.

The course incorporates and revisits skills from Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 through a variety of formative assessments that guide the students to be more self-driven and self-motivated. The CCR Bridge course is a great option for schools and provides an engaging curriculum the develops students’ conceptual understanding through problem solving. In this session, we will look at an overview of the course's design as well as look at a few specific lessons from the curriculum that can be immediately implemented in any HS math classroom. Strategies on starting, building and developing a Bridge course at your school will also be discussed. Monday at 2:15 PM in Salon 1 69. Why vs. How? - Jessica Miller [E] As our academic standards have changed, so have the demands on our Mathematics teaching. It is no longer enough for us to teach our students "how" to do math. We need to help them discover the "why", including using number talks in the classroom. This can be challenging, especially because not all of us were taught to think about the "why" in our K-12 careers or in our college studies. This disconnect between what is expected and what we know can create a large challenge when teaching mathematics to our students. This challenge can be both exciting and daunting. We will share our passion for teaching math and how we are helping teachers to discover their own math passion. This presentation will focus on how we are improving our mathematics teaching through professional development that gives educators the chance to work with, and think about, math in the same way we help our students learn.
