MIT BLOSSOMS

MIT BLOSSOMS is an educational initiative creating a free online repository of interactive video lessons for high school STEM classes.

The focus is on building critical thinking skills in students, on exciting them about STEM subjects, and showing them the relevance of STEM in everyday lives. MIT BLOSSOMS produces lessons, not courses, and each lesson follows a well-defined pedagogical and instructional design. The goal of these lessons is to be engaging, interactive, thought provoking, and involve critical thinking. They aim to contain challenging questions and activities that invite students to think critically and collaboratively. Visit http://blossoms.mit.edu/.

New Course Descriptions: Public Opinion Surveys

Review of: Common Core Mathematics Grade 2

Survey Header

Request ID: 582 | Abbreviated Title: ABC | Section: Grades Pre-K to 12 Education Course | Grade Group: Elementary

Justification

A new course must be created to adapt to the new second grade mathematics common core standards. Currently our courses are aligned with the Florida Standards. The common core standards introduces the incorporation of reading heavily into the mathematics curriculum and many of those standards are not addressed.

Standards/ Benchmark

The following questionnaire outlines the Standards (a statement describing a specific behavior, action, or competency a student should be able to demonstrate) and Benchmarks (a clear, specific description of knowledge or skill that students should acquire in order to demonstrate achievement of the related standard) currently included in this framework. Please evaluate each Standard and Benchmark and, using the form below rate each one by selected the appropriate rating for the drop down box. Select “Keep” if you feel a line item is an appropriate skills needed to satisfy the justification for this course, “Update” if the item should be updated, “Delete if the item is no longer relevant to this framework.

Standard/Benchmark	Rating	Comment
MACC.K.CC.11: Count to 100 by ones and by tens.
MACC.K.CC.2.5: Count to answer “how many?”

Additional Questions

Should a separate course be created to deal with the difference in 2nd grade math common core and state standards?

Yes No
