So, what does a Common Core lesson look like?

I Want to here

So you've sat through the PDs, read the standards, but you still don't know what a Common Core lesson looks like, right?

Here are some videos of Common Core Lessons so you can actually see it in practice.

While you're watching, look for evidence of the Eight Mathematical Practices. What do these teachers do that makes the lesson Common Core? What can you add to your existing lessons to make them more rigorous, more focused, and coherent with other grade levels?

These videos come from four sites:

Teaching Channel (these are great! On the bottom, right hand side they have lesson plans and materials linked! It's awesome)

Engage NY (New York's Common Core resource website)

Kahn Academy (Everyone knows Kahn Academy!)

and YouTube (I just typed "common core math lessons" in the search bar)

Anyway, watch videos from other grade levels, too, to get other ideas as well.
