In this session, we will discover ways to differentiate in a digital environment. Strategies, scenarios, tips, tricks, and practices will be shared to increase student engagement. Participants will be given an opportunity to understand how differentiating with technology can help them create student personalized learning profiles. We will explore how to use technology to teach to different learning styles so that retention is easier. Technology will be used so that teachers can connect with every student, and build stronger relationships that promote learning.
Now more than ever we know the importance of routines for students in math instruction. Building students’ number sense should still be an integral part of the math block, even if it has to look a little different. Whether you are new to number talks or looking for resources to refresh your number talks, join NCCAT virtually from 4:00-5:30pm to learn this about this strategy and explore resources. This program is intended for math teachers and instructional coaches in grades K-5.
