Based on the bestselling Guided Math in Action or equivalent. Teachers will learn to use the provided tools, templates, and blackline masters so that they can instantly adapt the lesson to their specific needs and use it right away. With the easy-to-follow plans in this book, students can work more effectively in small guided math groups and have fun. ● Leveling Math Workstations in Grades K-2 – or equivalent: This topic will inform teachers on how to level/differentiate math workstations/centers to engage K–2 students in meaningful, purposeful, rigorous practice to address the understanding that all students do not learn at the same pace and allow them to operate in their zone of proximal development. ● Math Workstations in Action Grades 3-5 – or equivalent: This topic will inform teachers how to incorporate math workstations/centers into their elementary math classes that allow students to engage in meaningful, independent math practice through student-driven games and activities and can be implemented in a traditional math class. ● Math Running Records - or equivalent: This topic will inform teachers how to assess students’ basic fact fluency and increase student achievement by pinpointing precisely where students are in their understanding of basic math facts and then outlining the next steps toward comprehensive fluency. ● Accelerating K-8 Instruction – or equivalent: This topic will inform teachers how to accelerate mathematics instruction so that all students learn and work on grade level, receive the right scaffolding when they need it, and feel a sense of achievement and success. Educators will, in turn, experience less frustration and the joy of helping students thrive. Including numerous strategies, tools, and downloadable templates, the professional development addresses research, planning, assessment, pedagogy, teaching math vocabulary, lesson planning, goal setting and motivation, and action planning.
