Join our math teacher leaders to experience SMP 3 Argumentation and its connections with SMP 6, 7, and 8. Through hands-on experiences, you will learn how to form, collect, and revise conjectures. Then you will collect more evidence and construct a class conjecture. The group will collaboratively draft a justification. The team will be explicit...

Join our math teacher leaders to learn research-based and classroom-tested strategies for supporting students' deep understanding of fractions through a ratio reasoning perspective. In this grade span, students learn part/whole fractions and then in 6th grade learn many other meanings represented in fraction form. These sessions will focus on fraction as division (5th grade), and...

Middle school teachers set the foundation that creates opportunities for students' educational and career choices. Join us to learn with our math teacher leaders about these vital concepts. This three-session PD series will have you experiencing the development of proportional reasoning through the following contexts: multiple representations with ratios, percent ratio comparison, rate of change,...

Our math teacher leaders are offering a second series of 3 meetings to further your understanding of such complex concepts. Ratio reasoning and proportional reasoning are foundational to upcoming math and science courses as well as career choices. This PD series approaches the development of proportional reasoning through the following contexts: division of fractions, sampling,...
