Engage in a comprehensive research-based approach to mathematics instruction based on how students think about math. Story problems and number sentences will be analyzed to determine the mathematical demands and recognize student responses in terms of cognitive development. Participants will assess students’ thinking and design problems that will develop students’ understanding of the important concepts and skills. Discussions about student work will provide a window into students’ thinking, strengthen students’ computational fluency and build their capacity for algebraic reasoning.
