Understanding multiple representations are one way that students show evidence of fluency with a topic. See how using multiple representations while investigating place value can help students deepen their understandings of this foundational topic. Several pieces of children’s literature will be shared as well.

One of the gold standard resources for mathematics is NCTM’s Navigating Through…series. Each grade band series includes books for Navigating through - Algebra, Data Analysis and Probability, Discrete, Geometry, Measurement, Number and Operations, and Problem Solving and Reasoning. The investigations in the series provide opportunities for students to reason, conjecture, and communicate about mathematics. Having used the series for years, I saw a need to quickly be able to locate potential lessons and activities. This compilation includes the lesson title and the goals. On a PC use “Ctrl F” and on a Mac use “Command F” to search for lessons and activities by key word.

Patterns anyone? Mathematics has at its heart patterns. Students must be provided multiple opportunities to discover and find patterns on their own if they are to make meaning and develop understandings. See how various types of patterns can be explored using the TI-15.

NCTM’s gift to the world is their Illuminations website. This webinar gives an overview of the website and all the treasures it has for teachers of all ages and all levels.
