Course information

Core Instruction in the Mathematics Classroom (Part 1): Foundations is a prerequisite to this course. 

Like what you learned in Core Instruction in the Mathematics Classroom (Part 1): Foundations, but still ask, “What strategies can I use in my classroom to facilitate deep mathematical understanding?” This three-hour course is the second in a two-part series that builds on the elements learned by delving deeper into the topics introduced in the previous course. You will learn about specific strategies and reflect on actions you can take in your classroom to plan instruction aligned with standards and promote mathematical rigor. 

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to: 

• implement strategies in your math classroom to achieve rigor.
• use the domain progressions in planning your mathematics instruction.
• implement the standards for mathematical practice and translate this to teacher and student actions in the classroom.
• practice using the domains and standards to plan mathematics instruction that considers how students progress across grade level.
