Unit Plans in Mathematics are a series of tasks and activities that can be backward mapped from the expectations to make sure students have the necessary skills and knowledge to move onto other expectations and/or strands.
When creating unit plans, it's important to:
- scaffold lessons - lots of connections need to be pointed out!
- develop activities which support a variety of learning styles
- incorporate manipulatives
- use flexible groups
- perform assessment for, and as, learning
- incorporate real world applications for mathematics
- provide extensions to open ended problems
- Allow for revisions - make it a working and dynamic plan
