1 MASTERY LEARNING 2013 - 2014 High School Mathematics Department How it is utilized in Geometry

2 Communications Teacher gives students a list of objectives For example: Geometry Unit 1 Objective 1: Be able to write the vocabulary word that corresponds to a given definition. Objective 2 – : Identify points, lines, planes, segments, and rays, and properly name them. Objective 3 – Identify the intersections of geometric figures. Objective 4 - Apply the segment addition postulate Objective 5 – Correctly use angle vocabulary Objective 6 – Correctly name angles. Objective 7 – Measure angles using a protractor. Objective 8 - Apply the angle addition postulate.

3 Strategies Teach objectives using various techniques Cooperative Learning strategies Jigsaw puzzle for vocabulary Four corners Journal writing on understanding of a concept Selecting students at random Posting ideas on paper at different locations around the room Use of document camera to give notes Worksheets

4 Consistency Common Assessment- students take the first test on the unit material Geometry Unit 1 All the tests are multiple choice with five questions for each objective. Each objective is 7 points total and the study island assignment is the last 7 point objective.

5 Remediation For each objective not mastered, less than 80% correct, students will complete remediation. They will have time in class and extensions to get help Geometry Unit 1 examples: Make a set of flashcards for all of the vocabulary terms. Watch a video on measuring angles with a protractor Complete a study guide on using the segment and angle addition postulates Watch a PowerPoint on identifying the intersections of points, lines, and planes

6 Another Chance Remediation is collected Students take a second test completing only the problems that match the objectives they remediated on. Consistency from test A to test B Each test has the same number of questions Each test has the same directions Each test has the same look and feel Test C – a third chance for the students that have completed all homework and remediation on time

7 Success Enrichment Special topics to enhance learning Opportunities to delve deeper into a concept Geometry Unit 1 Examples: Complete problems that expand the ideas from unit one Practice some challenging problems and take the enrichment test

8 Grading Grading in all of the Geometry classes is broken down into the following sections 70% Tests and study island 20% Enrichment 10% Homework Students and parents can keep track of the mastery for each objective on the home access center (HAC)
