CTLE: 1.5 credits per session
PARTICIPANTS WILL EXPLORE:
- the difference between automaticity and fluency.
- a variety of different lessons that can be used to develop fluency.
- video of students’ strategies for working with fraction computations. Here, transcripts will be used to highlight the mathematical ideas students are using and the teaching moves employed the maximize learning.
PARTICIPANTS WILL LEAVE WITH:
- different routines, games and minilessons they can use in their own classrooms.
- assessment problems to use to examine students’ computational fluency.
