   1 2 3 4 The How To's for new CMP teachers (relevant to 6th-8th grade) - Welcome new teachers!                  This session will focus on unpacking CMP.  We will look at two sixth grade units in depth.  Our                 focus will be on using the student edition, the teacher's edition, the assessment pieces and                 organization, WHILE delving deeply into a unit to make sense of what it "looks" like to teach                 CMP.   With the mathematical goals at the forefront, we'll investigate Bits and Pieces II AND                 Covering and Surrounding.  We'll explore the problems most difficult to teach and we'll address                 all the management issues that come along with this curriculum.  We'll also watch classroom                 video and think hard about how to teach CMP using the instructional model: launch, explore,                 summarize.   This is an amazing curriculum, but can be overwhelming.  Let’s dive in and make                 sense of all that can be attained through CMP!

   1 2 3 4 Fundamentals of Proportional Reasoning (relevant to 6th-7th and some 8th grade                 teachers) - In this workshop we will focus on the instructional model in CMP using the                 proportional reasoning strand.  We will look at the development of proportional reasoning across                 6th and 7th grade.  The how to launch, explore, and summarize these problems while pushing                 students’ proportional reasoning.  We will look at how these ideas are built upon and used to
                scaffold student learning in the 8th grade algebra units.

   1 2 3 4 Algebra (relevant to 6th grade-High School teachers) - What is algebra and what does it                 mean to think algebraically? What concepts and skills are emphasized in Connected                 Mathematics and how can we ensure all students access to these ideas? How do the algebraic                 ideas in CMP connect to high school and college mathematics? We will explore answers to                 these questions, and learn some new mathematics ourselves, by working some CMP algebra                 problems and by modeling and discussing effective classroom teaching strategies.

   1 2 3 4 Probability (relevant to 6th-High School teachers) - The probability units might just be the                 best kept secret in Connected Mathematics. Want to teach two units that will inspire critical                 thinking skills, engage ALL students, review and apply number sense concepts from many units?                 If you do...then teach the How Likely Is It and What Do You Expect units.  Once you experience                 the beautiful way this rich math is developed you will realize that these units HAVE to be given to                 kids during their middle school math years.   This session will focus on several "key" problems                 from these two units as we experience how multiple strands of mathematics are brought together                 to make sense of an exciting topic, probability. The engagement you feel during these lessons is                 only to be outdone by the engagement you’ll see from your students! .
