Visual Representations Amplify Mathematical Understanding

Speaker: Dr. Sara Delano Moore, Vice President of Content and Research, ORIGO Education
Room: Hilton Oasis 3
Audience: TK – Grade 5

When students grapple with mathematics by connecting representations, they develop deeper understanding & agency. This session shares strategies for connecting representations with a focus on the power of sketches & more formal mathematical diagrams.

Let’s talk.
I’d love to learn more about your school or district and share how we can help achieve your math goals in California. Contact me today.
