15375 Routines for Reasoning in the Math Classroom

We know mathematics is more than just computing numbers; it is about reasoning to problem solve. How do we encourage students to think as mathematicians? This program, based on the book Routines for Reasoning, will explore a range of routines that can be used in the classroom to facilitate students mathematical reasoning. Utilizing the eight mathematical practices, the routines learned in this program will empower teachers to help students scaffold word problems, develop deeper understandings of quantities, and make connections to big ideas in math. Join this program to vertically collaborate with colleagues from across the state and develop new instructional routines to strengthen students critical thinking skills. This program is intended for teachers who teach math in grades 6-12. The program will include cumulative K-12 sessions as well as grade span breakout sessions.


No classes are being offered at this time for this course.
