The class, led by Dr. Anne Marie Marshall, poses the question of how to ensure that every child grows into a confident and capable mathematician. The workshop will explore four key recommendations from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics for catalyzing change in early childhood and elementary school classrooms.

Participants will explore strategies to broaden the goals of math education, create equitable learning environments, deliver instruction that will empower all learners, and foster deep mathematical understanding.

Attendees will:

  • Analyze tasks, student work, and classroom examples that showcase effective math teaching
  • Reflect on the importance of mathematical identities for both students and teachers
  • Identify and discuss systems that hinder student agency and access to meaningful math learning
  • Develop actionable steps to bring about positive change in early childhood and elementary math classrooms

Act 48 credits are eligible for participants. Dinner and parking will be provided.

The workshop runs from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 5 at Carnegie Mellon University.

Registration is now open.
