End math anxiety! This engaging session will focus on empowering elementary students, particularly those who struggle and feel underrepresented in the mathematics classroom, by elevating their voices through purposeful mathematical discourse.
By fostering an inclusive learning environment where every student can engage, question, and explain their reasoning, we can shift the narrative that math is only for the “fast thinkers” and create a space where all students feel valued and capable. In this edWebinar, attendees will:
- Discover intervention strategies to meet diverse student needs and help cultivate an inclusive math environment
- Explore ways to build math confidence and mastery in reluctant or struggling learners
- Recognize the impact of leveraging discourse to deepen understanding
This edWebinar is designed for elementary school and district leaders, curriculum coordinators, and instructional decision makers who are committed to creating more equitable and engaging mathematics experiences for all students. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
