Teach Less and Learn More: Developing Number Concept and Number Sense 11/11/20(PDS Schools Only)

Audience: Grades K – 2 and Special Education

   Description: In this session, teachers will learn how to develop a strong number sense and reliable calculation skills in

   their young students.  They will learn ways to help students firmly establish cardinality by demonstrating meaningful c

   ounting to quantify totals, while understanding that numbers to 10 are composed of smaller parts.  Then, teachers will

   discuss how to develop calculation strategies and the skills of addition and subtraction up to 10 and 20.  From this base,

   they will learn how to help students develop a deep flexible understanding of multi-digit addition and subtraction

   algorithm calculations.  Lastly, they will learn a system for targeted and tailored student practice, including how to assess

   systematically students’ progress toward developing fluency.  The session will engage teachers in activities and games to

   help students develop fluency in these basic but important calculations
