Counting collections is a great way to get kids excited about mathematics while honing and extending early counting principles. By making counting explicit, hands-on, and fun, Counting collections provides a motivation for the mathematics of early place value understanding, skip counting, and addition. We will engage in Counting collections, and explore the initial launch with children as well as variations to make the activity meaningful for all learners. Each participant will leave with their own collection! Session 2 THE DEVELOPMENT OF NUMBER SENSE PART 1 – Friday, Jan. 10, 2020, 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM Developing number sense in our youngest learners is critical to their future success in mathematics and is the most important work you can do with your young learners once counting skills are in place. Through games and activities we will explore four number relationships that provide the foundation for number sense. Come learn how to help support your young learners become flexible and confident mathematical thinkers. Session 3 THE DEVELOPMENT OF NUMBER SENSE PART 2 – Friday, April 3, 2020, 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM This session will be a continuation of number sense development began in Session 2.

This day long workshop will provide in-depth presentation and discussion on American Indian Studies in Wisconsin (often referenced as Wisconsin Act 31). The focus of the training is to help educators understand and implement Wisconsin Act 31, which is a state law requiring all public school districts and pre-service teacher programs to provide instruction on the history, culture, and tribal sovereignty of the eleven federally-recognized American Indian nations in the state of Wisconsin. The workshop is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and information they need to integrate the requirements of American Indian Studies into lesson plans, material selections, pedagogical practices, and district curriculum. Information about the Wisconsin American Indian nations’ histories, treaty rights, sovereignty, and cultures will be presented throughout the training. The goals of the training are to share best practices, information, model programs, and resources with administrators and teachers so that they are knowledgeable about American Indian Studies in Wisconsin and are able to meet the requirements of Wisconsin Act 31. Note, this 1 day workshop fulfills the DPI Stipulation under PI 34.15 (4, c), the history, culture, and tribal sovereignty of American Indian nations located in Wisconsin. You will be required to complete two assignments in addition to attending the training. https://login.myquickreg.com/register/event/event.cfm?eventid=24119
