Building Understanding from 2 Color Counters: From Concrete to Concept Mathematics Online Series Virtual - 34375
Unlock the power of hands-on learning to deepen students’ understanding of mathematics from the ground up! In this interactive session, educators will explore the Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) instructional sequence to foster conceptual mastery of integer operations using two-color counters and algebra tiles. Participants will gain practical strategies for progressing from concrete tools to more abstract representations, building a strong foundation in multiplication and algebraic reasoning. This approach empowers students to engage deeply with concepts, creating lasting connections that support ongoing learning. By the session’s end, educators will be equipped to design a formative assessment that centers on student needs, promoting a personalized path to mastery in math. This session offers practical tools and strategies for making complex math accessible and engaging, fostering a deeper understanding for all learners. In this self-paced online session, participants will engage in interactive learning tasks using Desmos Classroom platform.
