4. Sharing our Learning and Thinking
Please group according to your grade level teams.
Each Team will take 10 minutes to reflect together on their lesson study and prepare to present their learning and thinking with the other teams.
We have brought copies of your final lesson draft for you to share with everyone.

5. Dairy Queen Dilemma Jonathan Leads
REMINDER: Ask participants to put cell phones in airplane mode. They should not use them for web searches during the task.
This is a real problem given to real students, which comes from their experiences visiting Dairy Queen. It stems from a task developed by Kim Bosetti – a middle grades math teacher in Danbury.

6. Dairy Queen Dilemma Forms groups of three or four teachers.
Your group must have at least one individual who teaches grades other than those represented by the other two or three group members.
Your group must have at least one individual NOT from your district.
Your group may decide to give each person a specific task but EVERYONE is responsible for doing mathematics/statistics, which includes writing it up.
Jonathan Leads
Resources needed: Measuring tape (at least two per group), rulers (two per group), graph paper, blank paper, fine-tipped markers or colored pencils, document camera, DQ cups and lids. Task will likely take hours. Participants may NOT fill the cups with liquid or use the internet during the task, even with cell phones. This dissolves the problem. They may use scientific or graphing calculators.

7. Dairy Queen Dilemma
I love ice cream and I love bargains. One day I went to Dairy Queen to have a blizzard. I saw four sizes listed for the following prices: Mini blizzard was $2.55, Small blizzard was $3.25, Medium blizzard was $3.80, and Large blizzard was $4.65. If I wanted to get the most blizzard for my money then which size should I buy? Demonstrate that your selection is the best buy by justifying your answer.
Consider: Are there multiple solutions? Is each result a solution or just a result? How deeply can you justify your response?
Jonathan Leads
Justify your work appropriately. Are there multiple solutions? Is each result a solution or just a result? How deeply can you justify your response?

8. Dairy Queen Dilemma
Your group will write an or text message that conveys your model, solution, limitations of your model(s), and any assumptions made during problem solving. You are encouraged to discuss models/approaches that were unsuccessful, for whatever reason. Be prepared to share this or text message with us and answer questions raised by other groups. Send s and text messages to

10. Common Core SMP The Standards for Mathematical Practice
Student Reasoning and Sense Making about Mathematics
Jonathan and Sandy Lead

11. The Standards for Mathematical Practice Student Reasoning and Sense Making about Mathematics
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
Model with mathematics.
Use appropriate tools strategically.
Attend to precision.
Look for and make use of structure.
Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Jonathan and Sandy Lead
-Divide group into three parts

12. Engaging in the Standards for Mathematical Practice
Independently read the assigned standard then:
Work with your group to create a concise representation of this standard on a large white PostIt paper.
Work with your group to explain how this standard was exhibited (or not) by us as we engaged in any of the tasks: Crossing the River, Hexagon Tables, Postage Stamp, Papa Bear’s Bakery, or Dairy Queen Dilemma. Concisely write these on your large PostIts.
Jonathan and Sandy Lead
-Remind them they should look in their binders to better remember the tasks from August

13. Engaging in the Standards for Mathematical Practice
After you have created a PostIt describing the standard work together to create:
A role play scenario of how the SMP would look in the classroom. Your group will decided on the context, the mathematics task, manipulatives, etc.
Audience – When others are doing their role play identify specific moments when you see the standard exhibited.
Jonathan and Sandy Lead
Before each role play we give a few mintues for the other groups to read over the paragraph
