Are you ready to tackle and teach the topics kids struggle with most? Greg Tang’s workshop for grade 1-6 teachers focuses on critical concepts that are barriers to student success. Topics include:
- Number sense & estimation
- Fact & procedural fluency
- Place value & rounding
- Fractions & decimals
- Multistep word problems
We will explore why students are having trouble, what gaps need to be filled, and which teaching methods are most effective. Greg will also show you cleverly-designed math centers that reinforce key concepts and give kids the repetition and practice they need. This is one workshop you won't want to miss!
