In this session, participants will connect the math screener/assessment and data with specific interventions that can be used to move students toward grade-level proficiency.
VENDOR SESSION: This session is sponsored by Great Minds.
When planning lessons, we often focus on the content standards, but what about the Standards for Mathematical Practice (aka the MPs)? Lessons grounded in the MPs provide students with opportunities to engage in mathematical thinking. Learn how to recognize and capitalize on opportunities for MP management with a focus on grades 3-5.
In this session, participants will examine the key levers to elevate math foundational skills instruction and learning outcomes. Participants will walk away with an in depth understanding of observation "Look Fors" in the impact areas of Structures for Learning, Aligned Content, Teacher Instructional Practices and Student Practice

This session will explore best practices for advising secondary math course selection for diploma pathways and their alignment with postsecondary goals.
Join us for our Elevate Math session as we delve into the K-5 math standards for Tier 1 instruction. Gain valuable insights into essential grade-level concepts and effective teaching strategies to foster student success. Participants will navigate the learning progression of these standards, developing an understanding of key concepts and skills vital for student achievement. Through interactive discussions and activities, attendees will uncover practical instructional strategies and resources to support Tier 1 classroom instruction. Let's elevate math education together!
Come learn about what it means for our students to really do Mathematics and not just know Mathematics. What do our teachers need to help our students make deep connections between Mathematical relationships so that they are more successful when faced with difficult tasks? Topics discussed will apply to whole group and small group instruction as well as intervention groups.
This session is about mastering the basic facts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, which is an essential goal for all students. Explore teaching, practicing (games), and assessing ideas for foundational facts and derived fact strategies.

Creating digital content is important. For starters, digital content is much more likely to be accessible than its paper based equivalent. Digital content can (usually) be enlarged, read aloud with text or screen readers, manipulated, copied, created with speech, and more. However, due to the complexity of math symbols, the plethora of worksheets in circulation, and the requirement for students to “show their work,” it has been difficult, if not impossible to create a digital equivalent. In this session, attendees will learn how to use technology with a feature rich UDL toolbar where users will be given the opportunity create math by way of using prediction, speech to math, a graph editor, and a screenshot reader which will enable users to hear the math aloud allowing users to further enhance their math vocabulary. I will also demonstrate how you scan a document with your mobile phone, and convert the math problems on it to digital & accessible math.
