With this deep understanding, participants will explore instructional strategies that promote differentiation, while still maintaining the rigor called for in the Common Core State Standards. Participants will demonstrate proficiency in making instructional decisions based on student evidence. These instructional strategies and decisions will be documented in a variety of ways including, but not limited to: video recordings, lesson plans, observational notes, and reflections. Course participants will complete assigned readings, engage in activities around those readings, and use the newly acquired knowledge to reflect on their current instructional practices. Much of the in-class time will be dedicated to group discussions of the readings, collaborative analysis of student work, and planning immediate next steps for teaching based on student evidence and the grade level progressions within the Common Core State Standards. https://login.myquickreg.com/register/event/event.cfm?eventid=21877

Recognizing that a large pile of candy is more than a small pile of candy is obvious even to very young children. However, a deeper understanding of the concepts of more and less develops gradually and deserves significant attention in early childhood mathematics instruction. When children are learning the relationships of more and less, the language we commonly use can sometimes get in the way. We will employ a sequence of questions designed to help your young learners manage comparing quantities with understanding. https://login.myquickreg.com/register/event/event.cfm?eventid=21635
