Event Description
Developing Strategies and Big Ideas in Early Number Sense
 
Join the Kentucky Center for Mathematics and Master Teacher Anne Burgunder this summer as we explore new and exciting ways to develop elementary students’ number sense.
 
The Kentucky Center for Mathematics is offering a free two-day Elementary School Summer Institute for EERTI graduates targeting big ideas, strategies and models essential for developing mathematical proficiency in elementary children. We will explore a variety of rich problems that allow participants to engage in deepening their own mathematical content knowledge and problem-solving habits of mind. We will look at foundational big ideas in early number and how these big ideas are the building blocks of addition and subtraction.
 
Learning about the ways numbers work and learning to see the underlying structure of numbers requires a multitude of carefully designed, interwoven and skillfully orchestrated experiences that reach beyond turning pages in a textbook and filling out worksheets. In this professional learning experience you learn essential ideas or early number, big ideas and operations by exploring mathematical models, rich problems, just-right games and math routines.
 
Expect to expand your present pedagogical repertoire adding tools, techniques, resources and strategies for teaching number sense in ways that reach a wide range of students. This interactive, hands-and-minds-on workshop will help you think about how to develop mathematical experiences for children that are positive and motivating.  Through incorporating the Common Core Mathematical Practices into all learning experiences we will see how adults and children alike will develop a stronger ability to reason and the capacity to argue mathematically.
