- The Power of Progressions: Untangling the Knotty Areas of Teaching and Learning Mathematics K-6 with Graham Fletcher
Sept. 8-9 (limited to 60 participants)
In this two-day workshop, we’ll explore the power of math progressions from kindergarten to 6th grade. We will examine the developmental progression of models, strategies and concepts in the areas of addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, and fractions. Participants will learn to harness the power of 3-act tasks and other high-yield activities to identify where student understanding is along these progressions, as well as to keep student thinking moving in the right direction.
