THIS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OFFER INCLUDES:

The Power of Choice in Mathematics

with Zandra de Araujo

Want to have less math problems to grade yet still get a lot of knowledge about your students' understanding of mathematics?? 

Choice can be a powerful motivator, but students have few opportunities to exercise the power of choice during a typical school day. In this session, we’ll explore three ways to build choice into our math lessons so that we can motivate and empower students. Together we will unpack the pedagogy and content to engage students. These easy to integrate ideas will provide great starting points for discourse and deeper understanding of mathematics.

20 Days of Number Sense and Rich Math Talk

with Steve Wyborney

Get ready-to-use animated Google Slides that will help build your students’ number sense!

20 Days of Number Sense and Rich Math Talk is a series of resources and practices that allow students to experience the wonder and joy of mathematics. This session explores 4 rich number sense routines including The Estimation Clipboard, Splat!, Esti-Mysteries, and Cube Conversations. Participants will learn how to use the free resources to invite students into rich number sense experiences. Session participants will also see how to use number sense experiences to promote deep, rich math talk that is filled with wonder, joy, and enthusiasm.

Safe Prompts for Entering Math Discussions

with Sara Van Der Werf

Help your students build positive math identities and engage with mathematics in new ways using Sara's activities.

How can I motivate my students? Why aren’t my students engaged during mathematics? These are questions educators wonder silently and at times out loud. The answers to these questions are connected to building positive mathematical identities in all students. This session will explore ways educators of students at all grade levels can practically structure their lessons to provide safe spaces for students to engage in discourse and mathematical reasoning.
