Teachers will engage in activities to become familiar with the Cognitively Guided Instruction model of teaching elementary mathematics. Through these activities, participants will learn a framework that synthesizes the research on how students develop understanding and procedural ability for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. This includes both a range of "problem types" and a developmental progression of typical strategies students develop for solving the different problem types. In addition, teachers will investigate equality and relational thinking and the connection of these two concepts to student success while learning algebra. The registration fee includes the book "Children's Mathematics: Cognitively Guided Instruction."
