Formerly known as The Math Strands Across the Primary Curriculum
In this session, we will deconstruct the expectations within the Measurement, Geometry & Spatial Sense, Pattering & Algebra, and Data Management & Probability so as to best support teaching through problem-solving and have students “think mathematically” as opposed to simply “doing math”. This session will be classroom-friendly and we will look at student work to anchor our discussions.
Note: We will also make connections to Number Sense and Numeration which were addressed in the OTF Connects Fall program.
