Course Description
Do you want to empower your students with math skills they can use and retain? This in-person course will give you the tools and strategies you need to build a strong foundation in mathematical fluency for your students. We'll dive into the best ways to incorporate engaging fluency activities into your daily routine, moving beyond just speed and accuracy to help students develop a deep, flexible understanding of math concepts.
Throughout the week, you'll learn a variety of formative and summative assessment techniques that will help you gauge student progress and tailor your instruction. We'll explore formal assessments, such as timed tests and quizzes, as well as informal methods, like observation and student interviews. You'll leave the course with a comprehensive toolkit, including practical lesson plans, engaging games, and hands-on activities that you can use and reuse year after year, saving you valuable prep time.
By the end of this course, you'll be equipped to create a dynamic and effective learning environment where mathematical fluency thrives. Upon successful completion of all five days, participants will receive a $300 stipend.
We look forward to having you join us and transform your approach to math instruction.
