A Quick Image instructional routine is beneficial to help students visualize, decompose, and describe geometric shapes. Discover how to enhance this routine by sequencing Quick Images to address specific learning goals about geometric properties and relationships.
Want to give students opportunities to learn how to make a difference in a real context using mathematical modeling? Come learn about the community-based mathematical modeling cycle, how to identify and build awareness of local, 3-5th grade friendly problems, and gain access to sample tasks.
Differentiation is challenging and time-consuming, but necessary in creating equitable environments for learning. Meet Takeoff by IXL, a breakthrough K-6 core math curriculum intentionally designed for differentiation. Explore a Takeoff lesson to experience the power of always-on differentiation.
Let's explore the flow of MTSS from universal screeners through progress monitoring. We will study the cycle through the lens of my 5th grade classroom, connect to the TRU Dimensions Framework, and make a plan for your own implementation using the tools you have available to you.
Learning is messy, and student work is filled with partial understanding. Mere re-teaching is not enough to replace misconceptions with conceptions. Participants will explore instructional interventions that encourage students to grapple with partial concepts to rethink their thinking.
Spark thinking, reasoning, and problem solving using your current curriculum. Leave with simple ways to open up curriculum tasks, differentiate in the moment & facilitate math discussions. Walk away with a clear plan to build a joyful, student-centered math community.
While we want students to be able to think flexibly and have multiple strategies for solving problems, when is it too many? Does your curriculum have you drowning in strategies? In this session we will explore practical ways to help you make sense of it all!
How do we help students see themselves as mathematicians? Explore how routine digital reflections elevate student voice and reshape mindsets. Learn to use familiar Google tools to facilitate meaningful feedback loops that ensure every learner feels seen and valued as a mathematician.
