AMSTI K-5 Math Foundations Course is a REQUIRED Prerequisite to attend this session. Please bring Student Centered Teaching Book and Math Foundations materials received during session. Extra books will not be available. Teachers will not receive manipulatives from AMSTI for attending this session. Teachers must attend both days.
This two-day session focuses on the development of students' understanding of the base-ten number system and properties of addition and subtraction. Participants will explore how counting and cardinality develop into unitizing, composing/decomposing numbers, related hands-on activities, and analyze evidence of students understanding to inform planning of next instructional steps.
