Overview:

To change outcomes in mathematics, we must first rethink our approach. This pathway is designed for teachers, coaches, and school and district leaders. It introduces the 8 Effective Math Teaching Practices as a foundation for shifting the perception of math in our 3-5 classrooms. Participants will have an opportunity to reflect on current teaching practices, see what the 8 Effective Teaching Practices look like in their grade band, and promote deeper understanding, meaningful engagement, student agency, and equity in math education. Together, let’s reimagine what’s possible and create a path to better results for every learner.

This pathway emphasizes creating classrooms that foster curiosity and engagement for all students. Special attention will be given to middle and high school topics and the pivotal role they play in helping educators navigate the critical transition from concrete to abstract mathematical thinking.Aligned Support During and After: COMPASS team members will schedule support between sessions.

Targeted Audience: This pathway is ideal for 6-12 grade level teachers, coaches, and instructional leaders who support 6-12 grade Math instruction.
