Grades 3-6: Why Before How, Singapore Math Computational Strategies

Grades 3-6: Why Before How, Singapore Math Computational Strategies

A first step toward more effective math instruction is to move away from an emphasis on teaching computation as a series of rote rules. This workshop will focus on developing student comprehension of computation through conceptual understanding of what to do and why. We will explore multiple strategies for solving computation problems so that we can better meet all student needs. The goal of this workshop is to help you develop students who not only are capable of solving computation problems, but who also truly understand computation and can apply their thinking to new problem situations.
