Students come to the classroom with abundant cultural, linguistic, and prior knowledge, as well as personal interest-based assets (Ladson-Billings, 2022). Join Kelly Serpa Howe, Ed.D. as she explores methods for creating a more inclusive and engaging learning environment by integrating students’ assets into the math classroom.
In this session, educators learn how to use a structured, problem-based approach and interactive activities to intentionally increase curiosity, honor mathematical brilliance, and provide all students with opportunities to interact and explore grade-level math.
This recorded edWebinar is of interest to K-12 teachers, school leaders, and education technology leaders.
