Wouldn't it be fabulous if all math learners were fluent in their basic facts AND they retained that learning?  Join your colleagues for a blended professional learning (five hours of pre-work and two-day workshop) that will focus on supporting all students as they work to master the basic facts for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.  This is an essential goal for all students and is the foundation on which all mathematical computation and fluency is based!   

This robust and highly interactive professional learning is based on work by mathematicians Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling in their book, Math Fact Fluency:  60+ Games and Assessment Tools to Support Learning and Retention.  We will explore five fundamentals designed for strategy use in math learning and retention through games and assessments that will lead students to not only learn basic facts, but to retain these important facts and use them flexibly in higher level mathematics.  

A copy of the book, Math Fact Fluency:  60+ Games and Assessment Tools to Support Learning and Retention will be provided to all participants.

This professional learning is based on  the work of Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling in their book, Math Fact Fluency: 60+ Games and Assessment Tools to Support Learning and Retention.  Participants will find the book to be an essential resource, and a copy of the book is included in the registration.

As part of the STEM requirement for clock hours we will be looking at career connections and participants will need to have a way to access electronic resources.  Laptops are required.

Additionally, participants must be able to access Google classroom with either a school or personal gmail account. Pre-work will be submitted and managed in Google classroom between October .  Watch for an email with additional details prior to October 10, 2023.

Sessions are not recorded.
