Why limit math to 60 minutes a day? Join us for an interactive session where we transform math from a subject into a classroom culture. We’ll explore how to seamlessly weave mathematical thinking into every transition and corner of your schedule. From rhythmic songs and daily routines that build deep conceptual understanding to high-engagement games and cutting-edge online tools, you’ll leave with a ready-to-use toolkit. Discover how to boost student fluency and confidence by making math a constant, joyful presence in your students' day.
Fluency in mathematics is more than just speed or memorization. According to the book "Figuring Out Fluency in Mathematics", fluency is the ability to use efficient, flexible, and accurate strategies to solve problems.
