JUST IN TIME-TEACHER Summer Series Geometry and Measurement(Virtual)

Event Phone: 904.853.6628

This summer [Math]odology will replace our annual institute, “Essential Understanding in Mathematics,” with six live virtual workshops throughout June and July.

At [Math]odology we strive to provide teachers with tools to make the teaching and learning of mathematics accessible for all. Our “Just In Time” workshop series offers rich professional development on the precise topics you need. We understand your time is valuable so our workshops will focus on one concept and the development of the core knowledge needed to obtain success. Sarah Schaefer & Dr. Yeap Ban Har will incorporate the concrete, pictorial, and abstract models and discuss how to relate these models to achieve abstract thinking and reasoning.

Since 2007, Sarah has held teacher, student, and parent workshops around the globe. Since the pandemic, she and her team have provided hundreds of hours of support to teachers, students, and parents through virtual workshops, webinars, and recorded videos. Her 20 years of teaching mathematics in K-12 classrooms along with her extensive teacher training and most recent authorship of both the think!Mathematics and Developing Roots places Sarah as a leader in the field.

Yeap Ban Har, Ph.D., was a faculty member at the National Institute of Education Singapore at Nanyang Technological University. Since then he has held concurrent positions as principal of a teacher professional development institute, director of curriculum and professional development at the Pathlight School in Singapore and the Anglo Singapore International School in Thailand. His research interests include problem posing and solving, challenging all students, and teacher professional development.

The sessions have limited capacity; which means you’ll be collaborating with smaller groups and learning with educators from around the world. We hope that the time is right for you to join us as we teach less, and learn more!

Developing Geometry and Measurement Concepts
We complete our summer series with a deep dive into concepts around geometry and measurement.  During this session, participants will learn the basic concepts in geometry and apply these concepts to solve problems while uncovering the big ideas around measurement.  Participants will leave with strategies to help students connect ideas.

Offered July 25, 2022 10 a.m.-1 p.m. EST
