Rehumanized version: Recall what you learned about Ratios last year. Use the ratio language to describe a relationship between two quantities.
Reading Ease: 59.16 (close to 60 is good)
Flesch-Kincaid grade lvl: 7.37

Example: CC 6.RP.A.1 (Go to Common Core site) standard is written at a 12th grade level.
It is a 6th grade standard. +

Another way to rehumanize our content is to make sure it is accessible to all Ss.
Low floor-High ceiling.
Our Ss are not written at an accessible grade level for most Ss.
Teachers or adults in general.
They read like gibberish.

What better way to teach writing an essay than by letting them start w/something they are learning/using in other classes??
They will see how things are connected and no longer look at the 4 subjects as separate.

You can definitely find more pics of 1-room schls and current pics of overcrowded classrooms.
#SocialStudies & #History Teachers could definitely work with their #Math colleagues to develop an interdisciplinary unit; not just 1 lesson.

What could be done to decrease the # of Ss in your classes?
This will cover the Belonging Dimension.
Do the Ss believe they truly belong to the schl community? Do their opinions matter? Do they matter?

Once everyone is done with their Sheet, show them how to turn it into a graph. Compare them all (on projector).
Go back to the 'feeling' questions (body/emotion).
Do you believe you receive appropriate amount of assistance you need to be successful? Why/why not?

Give Ss a Data sheet/table and have them do this before the next class:
In each class, count & record the number of Ss & Ts.
When everyone brings theirs back, discuss and compare.
*This would be a good time to teach making a Table in Docs & Sheets.*

And now you can introduce #Ratios.
What is a Ratio?
How do we use them?
Why do we use them?
How are they applicable to everyday life?
(Yes, they gon' learn what the word applicable means in *my* class.)

Ts talk about class sizes and how we face more challenges when the numbers are high.
Do we expect Ss to *really* learn in those conditions?
When I think about 30+ Ss/class, I miss being a Special Ed T.

3. Using a number, how would you explain or describe to me the number of Ss compared to the number of Ts in each classroom?
These questions call to Dr. Gutiérrez's Body/Emotions Dimension of #RehumanizingMath.
It doesn't start/end with content. Look at the learning/teaching conditions.

2. What about the number of Teachers?
Do you think there should be more than 1 Teacher in a classroom?
Some classrooms or all? Why?

Qs to pose to Ss:
1. Have you ever looked around your classroom and counted the number of students present at the beginning of the year?
Did you think there were too many or too few?

FYI: I'm planning a TEACH-IN for the King Holiday.
If you canceled your inauguration plans, now you have something else to do! If you aren't a Math/content Teacher, you can sponsor one!
Trying to keep it at/right under 2 hours
Stay tuned!
