360 Degree Math: Transform the Math Classroom
Flip the script in the math class by putting your students center stage with 360 degree math. Learn how you can easily upgrade the learning environment with some whiteboard paint or just a bunch of whiteboards plastered throughout your room. Attendees will run through a variety of simulations of what it's like teach in a 360 degree math class. They'll also leave with the resources(inventory, implementation, tech integration) to go back to their sites and demand this in their own classroom.

10:00am PDT

Appetizing Math Activities
Did you know there is a rag-tag band of math teachers that build stuff for each other?
Did you also know that it's all free?
Did you further know that those activities can be applied to any age, content, or lesson?

Did I mention "free"?

Drawing Up Better Assessments
Let's face it - the way in which we assess our students needs a bit of an upgrade. Using a bit of technology and a whole lot of teamwork, we will discuss and create new ways to assess for deeper learning. Bring a hard hat; it's time to go to work.

Visual Patterns and Problem Solving
Algebraic reasoning is important throughout all grade levels. Incorporating visual patterns into the curriculum helps maintain and sharpen this critical thinking skill. We'll work through some challenging tasks that will foster the 8 mathematical practices. We'll also look at ways to give regular textbook problems more bang for their buck.
