 Expressions, Equations, and (In)Equality (IMPACTS-MS) - VIRTUAL ONLY Expressions, equations, and inequalities are critical concepts for students transitioning from Elementary arithmetic to High School mathematics. Students progress from the world of concrete representations to abstract thinking, bringing to bear a variety of math trajectories. Workshop participants will explore strategies for building relevance, excitement, and understanding...

 Beyond the Shape: Teaching Geometry with Conceptual Depth (IMPACTS-Elem) How can students discover attributes and structures through exploration? Come experience the world of geometry in a new way. Look at figures and shapes in new ways, and discover new relationships. Participants will experience investigations designed to support K-5 students' discovery and conceptualization of geometric attributes...

 Bridging the Learning Gap: Interventions and Acceleration (IMPACTS-Elem) What routines and lesson structures help ALL learners succeed? Dig deep into a K-5 Number Sense Trajectory to unpack ways to support students in their learning journey by addressing specific skills. Experience how these research based ideas of intensification, acceleration, and intervention apply to students with diverse...

Small Groups, Big Impact (IMPACTS-Elem) Have you set up Centers with your students, and now you want to dig deep into your intensification and enrichment time with your small groups? Do you want to discover how to choose your small groups, how to structure their experience, and how to get the most out of the...

The Power of Games in Middle School Math (IMPACTS-MS) - IN-PERSON ONLY Though regularly used in elementary school, games are often overlooked and underutilized in middle school math. Not only do they promote student engagement, but they also provide opportunities for discourse, argumentation, in-context practice, and development of new ideas. And now more than ever, they...

Making Sense Together (IMPACTS-HS) Join us for this high school–focused workshop, where we’ll explore both content and pedagogy to strengthen teaching and learning across all high school mathematics classrooms. More...
