Room 140-142

This session will engage participants in active learning opportunities used by the Developing Mathematical Thinking Institute's partner schools from around the United States. Participants will learn how to provide research-based math interventions to improve PK-8 students' number sense, fact fluency, fraction understanding, and problem solving abilities. Supporting evidence from diverse schools serving students with needs in regards to language and academic rigor will be shared as part of the presentation.
