Creating a Thinking Classroom for Primary Mathematics Part 2

Once we have explored the principles of a primary thinking classroom, we need to consider how to create it? In this session, practical tools will be introduced to help you design the thinking classroom for your students. These tools will help to develop assessment rich classrooms that sustain inquiry, engage your students, and nurture self-regulation. …

The Progression of Division

The Progression of Division: From Arrays and Area Models to Long Division and Beyond Like multiplication, division is a very important concept that spans from primary and into abstraction well beyond our high school curriculum. Let’s take some time to explore where the idea of division begins, build a conceptual understanding of what it means, …

The Progression of Multiplication: From Arrays and Area Models to the Standard Algorithm and Beyond

We’ve all heard it before; kids don’t know their multiplication facts! While this may or may not be true, what is more important than simply memorization multiplication facts is building a conceptual understanding of what multiplication means, how to visualize multiplication and how the standard algorithm for multiplication really works. Let’s start in primary where …

Talking…Changes Everything In the Math Class: Assessing Math Through Observations and Conversations

In this webinar, participants will be learning to gather good mathematics assessment data through observations and conversations. They will learn how technological tools can be used to gather evidence of student thinking. They will see why assessing mathematics is about more than just tests or summative tasks. Audience: Grades K-8 Resources: Contact Matthew Oldridge Twitter: …

Coding & Computational Thinking – Beyond the Makerspace

In this session, teachers will learn the basics of block based coding and how to make use of mathematical principles to create content of and for learning. Coding is cross curricular. Participants will engage in hands on development of work samples appropriate to subjects, grade level, and classroom makeup. Assessment is not about final products, …
