Inclusive math classrooms for multilingual learners (MLs) build upon students' backgrounds, intentionally develop language, provide linguistic support, and reinforce students' math identities. This session will focus on strategies, tools, and practices that elevate and support MLs in mathematics.
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.
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.
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.
