Session #557
Decoding Mathematics: Connecting Math and Language for Powerful Problem Solving
Speaker: Dr. Sara Delano Moore, ORIGO Education Vice President of Content and Research
Audience: Grades K – 5
Room: 150A
Description: The word “mistake often pushes teachers automatically into deficit thinking. Borrowing the idea of miscues from the literacy world allows teachers to change lenses, taking an inquiry-and-asset–based view of assessment. Considering multiple systems for mathematical thinking, teachers can create opportunities to advance learning through strengths.
