What are the behaviors of mathematically proficient students? Better yet, how do we engage students so that these behaviors come alive in our classrooms? This session will focus on intentional and strategic yet practical and easy-to-implement strategies for bringing elementary mathematics to life. Participants will leave with a collection of activities and resources ready for implementation in their 3-5 classrooms.

Learning outcomes include:

  • Participants will explore strategies for implementing the Math Practice Standards.
  • Participants will explore how to engage students in the learning of mathematics.

 

This session is offered at no cost to CESA 10 districts participating in Title IIA and STEM (Abbotsford, Altoona, Augusta, Bloomer, Bruce, Cadott, Chippewa Falls, Colby, Cornell, Eau Claire, Eleva-Strum, Gilman, Gilmanton, Granton, Greenwood, Lake Holcombe, Loyal, Neillsville, New Auburn, Osseo-Fairchild, Owen-Withee, Spencer, Stanley-Boyd, and Thorp).  

For all other districts, the cost to attend is $350. per participant.

 

Teacher Standards

WES2The teacher understands how children with broad ranges of ability learn and provides instruction that supports their intellectual, social, and personal development.
WES3The teacher understands how pupils differ in their approaches to learning and the barriers that impede learning and can adapt instruction to meet the diverse needs of pupils, including those with disabilities and exceptionalities.
WES4The teacher understands and uses a variety of instructional strategies, including the use of technology to encourage children’s development of critical thinking, problem solving, and performance skills.
WES7The teacher organizes and plans systematic instruction based upon knowledge of subject matter, pupils, the community, and curriculum goals.
WES8The teacher understands and uses formal and informal assessment strategies to evaluate and ensure the continuous intellectual, social, and physical development of the pupil.
WES10The teacher fosters relationships with school colleagues, parents, and agencies in the larger community to support pupil learning and well being and who acts with integrity, fairness and in an ethical manner.
