K-3 Math Achievement Academies- Whole Number Operations ($350 Stipend)
Description:
The Math Academies are designed to implement research-based mathematics achievement academies for Kindergarten through grade 3. The Kindergarten through grade 3 mathematics achievement academies will enhance teachers’ knowledge and skills so they can effectively teach students in primary elementary grades to achieve mathematical proficiency. The academies will deepen teachers' understanding of research-based effective and systematic instructional practices in mathematics that they can use to help students develop problem-solving skills and a strong foundation of number sense and fluency.
Special Notes:
- This is a 3 day workshop. Attendance at all three days is required.
- Teacher may only register for the grade level which he/she is contracted to teach during the 2021-2022 school year.
- Must attend during off contract dates for the stipend to apply.
- These trainings are for Region 2 math teachers.
CPE: 18 Hours

Math Workshop & Guided Math
Description
Differentiation, student discourse and engagement are key elements to a successful mathematics classroom. In order to address gaps and unfinished learning due to the COVID Pandemic, this workshop will help create a vision for teachers on how math classrooms can be a space for providing ALL students, especially those at-risk, with an opportunity to access mathematical concepts and skills at their instructional level. This session will provide training on the characteristics of Math Workshop which include number sense, guided math, learning stations, and student reflection.
CPE: 6 Hours
Session Details:
Sessions are available for grades K-5. Please see below for workshop details.

Bridging the Gaps in Math
Description:
Due to COVID-19, students are likely to have learning gaps and/or unfinished learning in different areas of mathematics. To help all students, especially those at-risk, it is important that teachers have a plan to bridge these gaps.
In order to support teachers as they prepare and plan for instruction, this training will focus on several actions:
- identifying potential gaps for the first grading period with an emphasis on the focal points
- unpacking previous grade level standards that align with these gaps
- engaging in vertically aligned discussions
- creating pre-assessments that will inform instruction for teachers about the potential gaps and/or unfinished learning so that they may properly plan instruction for the first grading period
CPE: 6 Hours
Session Details:
This session is for grades 3-5. Please see below for workshop details.

Gap Game Plan for Math Success!
Description:
Instructional circumstances were greatly impacted over the past year, resulting in learning gaps or unfinished learning. To help address the Covid-slide, we will create a game plan to help teachers plan for learning to help all students, especially at-risk students. During this session, participants will focus on instructional opportunities and strategies that engage students. These strategies will help mistakes become opportunities to develop mastery level achievement. Participants will leave this workshop with a structured math gap game plan, pre-assessments to address unfinished learning, and creative instructional strategies to make up for lost learning.
CPE: 6 Hours
Session Details:
Session is for grades 6-8. Please see below for workshop details.

Grappling with Gaps in High School Mathematics
Description:
Instructional circumstances were greatly impacted over the past year resulting in learning gaps or unfinished learning, known as COVID-slide. To help address COVID-slide, it is important that teachers have a plan to help all students, especially those at-risk.
During this session, participants will focus on instructional opportunities and strategies for tackling learning loss. These strategies will help mistakes become opportunities to develop mastery level achievement. Participants will leave this workshop armed with new ideas, pre-assessments specific to their course, and a plan to level off the learning loss of the past year.
CPE: 6 Hours
Session Details:
This session is for grades 9-12. Please see below for workshop details.
