This 7-week asynchronous online course focuses on the teacher’s role in supporting the range of learners in K-5 math classrooms. Appropriate for users of any elementary mathematics curriculum, the weekly sessions include interactive math tasks and discussions, as well as opportunities to analyze student thinking, and explore a variety of instructional strategies to effectively support and engage all students in math learning.
In this course, participants:
- explore ways to create a supportive and productive learning environment that empowers all students as math learners
- examine strategies for differentiating instruction, supporting math language, conducting formative assessments, and creating groupings to further all students’ math learning
- consider ways to effectively plan and facilitate math discussions that support and engage the range of learners
- analyze student work and classroom video, and consider instructional moves that extend, deepen, and invite math reasoning
- collaborate with colleagues through interactive discussion forums in order think about how to support students with diverse learning profiles
