How to Let Go: The Secret to Redefining “Success” in Math

What if the real problem isn’t failure, but our messed-up definition of success? We’ll dismantle the pressure cooker of math class, flip the script on success, and help students, and you, feel confident taking the risks needed to learn and grow. Walk away with tools to calm the chaos, heal math trauma, and remember that you are already doing enough.

Finding Joy in Math

On the first day of school, I ask students to share their favorite math memory. I will never forget when one student said she does not have a favorite math memory in her whole K–12 experience. In this talk, I will share how we can make math class more joyful so students can have more positive math memories.

    Foundations for Implementation

    Schedule & Registration

    This professional learning is designed for teachers as they begin their implementation of CPM. This series contains multiple components and is grounded in multiple active experiences delivered over the first year. This learning experience will encourage teachers to adjust their instructional practices, expand their content knowledge, and challenge their beliefs about teaching and learning. Teachers and leaders will gain first-hand experience with CPM with emphasis on what they will be teaching. Throughout this series educators will experience the mathematics, consider instructional practices, and learn about the classroom environment necessary for a successful implementation of CPM curriculum resources.

    Page 2 of the Professional Learning Progression (PDF) describes all of the components of this learning event and the additional support available. Teachers new to a course but who have previously attended Foundations for Implementation can choose to engage in the course Content Modules in the Professional Learning Portal rather than attending the entire series of learning events again.
