2018 Preconference Workshops and Awards Reception
Day 1 of the CCTM Annual Conference features a workshop for in-depth professional learning. Unlike past years, CCTM is hosting only a single workshop for teachers. Math leaders should strongly consider attending NCSM's Summer Leadership Academy, held in the Denver Tech Center from Monday, July 30th through Wednesday, August 1. Following the conferences will be an awards reception honoring both CCTM awardees and our newest PAEMST state finalists.
Registration/check-in for the workshop will happen at the workshop.
3:00-5:30 Teacher Workshop
Teaching Math Strong: Connecting our math vision with instruction for a more just and humanizing mathematics education
In this session, we will explore our collective visions for teaching math strong students. Participants will discuss the roots of their math vision and how that vision is communicated through instruction. We will focus on equity-based instructional routines and practices that open up space for learning more rich, rigorous and relevant mathematics. Participants will be introduced to some planning tools to refine and customize their instruction to nurture math strong students. All grade levels welcomed.
