Designed for teachers in grades 6-12.

We know mathematics is more than just computing numbers; it is about reasoning to problem solve. How do we encourage students to think as mathematicians? This program, based on the book Routines for Reasoning, will explore a range of routines that can be used in the classroom to facilitate students’ mathematical reasoning. Utilizing the eight mathematical practices, the routines learned in this program will empower teachers to help students scaffold word problems, develop deeper understandings of quantities, and make connections to big ideas in math. Join this program to vertically collaborate with colleagues from across the state and develop new instructional routines to strengthen students’ critical thinking skills. This program is intended for teachers who teach math in grades 6-12. The program will include cumulative K-12 sessions as well as grade span breakout sessions.

What if rather than hearing your students say, “I’m not good at math,” (or science) you could hear them say “math is my favorite class!”?  This session is for high school math and science teachers ready to learn how to use the elements of authentic Project Based Learning as a catalyst to restore the joy, wonder, and excitement of these subjects, while also enabling an increase in rigor and student depth of knowledge. Participants will work in a collaborative environment to develop a working knowledge of the elements of High Quality PBL, including how to leverage school and community resources to make the learning more applicable and relevant to things students care about. Join us with one or more project ideas that will be transformed into a single, standards-based project that is ready for launch in your school.
