Notice: To view/join sessions and download materials, you must login and/or register for the event.
How do students learn to think like mathematicians? In this session, participants will explore the eight Standards for Mathematical Practice through engaging ideas such as part–whole thinking, visualization, metacognition, communication, and generalization. Teachers will discover simple routines and classroom moves that help these habits grow across grades K–5. Participants will leave with practical strategies to build confident, curious problem-solvers ready to tackle any math challenge.
