Teaching through the Mathematical Processes
Session 3: Connecting the Mathematical Processes to the Curriculum Expectations
Share Solutions …Individually:• Share your solutions to the Home Activity
problem on chart paper.• Post your solutions, grouping similar
strategies.• Do a gallery walk, noting the different
strategies.
Whole Group:• Discuss placement of the solutions.
Bansho Strategy
Multiple Solutions …
“How did solving your problem in more than one way encourage and promote the use of different Mathematical Processes?”
Math Processes and Curriculum• In groups of 2 or 3, select an
overall expectation in a strand of a course or grade.
• Read the overall expectation and identify the mathematical process in it.
• Read the Specific expectations and identify the primary Mathematical Process in each.
• Make conclusions that pertain to “teaching to the processes.”

Problem Solving (Reasoning and Proving) The T-Square Tiling Company makes ceramic floor tiles. Note: The square tiles that are shown are the same size. SR and ZY have the same length. Justify how you know the shaded areas PSRQ and WZYX are the same size.
Problem Solving (Connecting) Andrea’s backyard is rectangular. Its dimensions are 15.0 m by 10.0 m. Andrea’s family is making 2 garden areas and leaving a grassy area from the patio doors to the corners at the back of the yard. The patio doors are 2.0 m wide. Determine the total area of the gardens. Show your work.
Expectation – Measurement, 7m38: Solve problems involving the estimation and calculation of the area of a trapezoid.

Continuum and Connections
• select a continuum and grade level• study the questions on developing
proficiency for the expectation from this continuum
• compose a new question related to this expectation but with a focus on a different mathematical process
In pairs:
Guess the Process …
• Share your created problem. • Don’t tell the process….• Group conjectures what process is being
focussed on, and explains their reasoning.
