TARGET AUDIENCE: GRADE 4-6 TEACHERS, MATH COACHES AND LEARNING COACHES ARE ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND

Once students have consolidated surface learning, teachers can encourage learners to begin making generalizations about and connections among mathematical ideas. Students can begin to plan, investigate, and elaborate on their learning. This will nurture deep learning. These evening sessions will parallel the conversations and content shared in the Visible Learning for Mathematics series (separate registration at, https://crcpd.ab.ca/program/3068, please note, you do not have to sign up for the full day Visible Learning sessions).  During our evenings, we will focus on practical approaches for deep learning using the Visible Learning research as a guide. Participants will walk through different approaches and engage in the kind of classroom experiences that promote deeper learning.

With our division 2 colleagues, we will meet 3 times over the school year to dig deeper into the content of Visible Learning for Mathematics, and to share and collaborate with each other.    Join us for some hands-on activities, professional conversations and ideas that you can use in your classroom.

For the division 2 Collaborative Community we have Candace Beaton and Wanda Dechant as our facilitators.

This learning opportunity is being offered through curriculum implementation funding from Alberta Education.
