Empowering Mathematical Thinkers
Empower your students to think like mathematicians by fostering rich mathematical discourse in your classroom. This professional development session offers practical tools and strategies to help educators create an environment where students can think constructively, communicate effectively, and enhance their mathematics proficiency.
In this session, learners will:
Math Boot Camp
Environments rich in mathematical opportunities are essential if we want our students to develop a thorough understanding of mathematics. When students begin to recognize how numbers and problem solving affect their everyday lives, mathematics becomes more meaningful to them. The creation of a classroom environment supporting numeracy then enables students to build on their previously acquired knowledge of numbers.
In this session, learners will:
Guided Math
Discover an innovative approach to math instruction that promotes mathematical thinking and conceptual understanding. This workshop will guide you through research-based instructional models like mathematical discourse, whole-group and small-group lessons, and math warm-ups. Learn to implement data-driven instruction using assessments and explore practical strategies for classroom management to ensure the success of any guided math program.
