This edWebinar helps educators intentionally develop students’ capacity to think and act like mathematicians, beyond mastering content alone. Being a mathematical thinker and doer requires complex proficiencies such as reasoning, problem solving, communicating, modeling, strategic decision making, and using precise mathematical language. These practices are essential for deep understanding and long-term success.

In this session, we:

  • Unpack the connections between the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for Mathematical Practice and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Process Standards
  • Examine the research that supports teaching these proficiencies as central to effective math instruction
  • Explore how Progress in Mathematics (Grades K–5) translates these practices into clear, actionable instructional strategies

Educators gain insights into how to shift math instruction from rote procedures to meaningful problem solving and discourse. The edWebinar also highlights classroom strategies and resources that support diverse learners in building strong mathematical habits of mind.

View this session for practical takeaways you can apply immediately, a deeper understanding of mathematical practices, and tools to enhance engagement and achievement for all students. This recorded edWebinar is of interest to K-5 teachers, school leaders, district leaders, education technology leaders, and curriculum and instruction directors and coordinators.
