Presented by professional learning specialists.
Based on the book, Math Workshop: Five Steps to Implementing Guided Math, Learning Stations, Reflection, and More
In math class, students learn new mathematical content, practice skills, and explore complex mathematical ideas. Math Workshop is a structure for math class that encourages independence, responsibility, and risk-taking in students, creating mathematicians with a solid foundation of number sense that results in a conceptual understanding of mathematics. This professional learning supports teachers to implement Math Workshop, providing students with engaging learning experiences that promote mathematical thinking, mathematical discourse, and a positive disposition toward mathematics.
