We’ve done the research and want to help you put it into practice with your students. From word problem fun on the first day of school to collaborative projects to end the year and everything in between, leave this training with a wealth of ideas that will spark even more ideas as you work with your students. The first part of this session will involve hands-on activities that help students see the math and reinforce the concepts of the four basic operations. We will explore single-step and multi-step problems involving whole numbers, fractions, and decimals. A portion of this training is held in a computer lab and will give participants a chance to explore internet resources that support our session objective.
