Let’s Give Them Something to Read, Write, and Talk About in Math Class!
Presented by Latrenda Knighten
To support the mathematics learning of all students, effective teachers establish an environment where students regularly engage in a variety of activities that help them make sense of mathematics. These activities can be instrumental in helping students develop an understanding of math content and language while learning new concepts.
In this session, participants will explore instructional strategies and activities that integrate literacy in math classrooms by providing students with opportunities to connect math concepts to the real world. Attendees will also learn to engage students in problem-posing tasks and promote problem solving, reasoning, and critical-thinking skills in student-centered classrooms.
