Uncovering and Leveraging Students' Mathematic Strengths and Points of Power

What if, instead of focusing on what students don’t know or haven’t mastered, we identify their mathematical strengths and build next instructional steps based on students’ points of power?

Highlights:

• Identify teaching strengths

• Discover and leverage students’ strengths

• Design instruction from a strengths-based perspective

• Help students identify their points of power

• Promote strengths in school community and home

A virtual POST CONFERENCE conversation will be held on March 19th from 9:00 am - 11:00 am.  We hope that all registrants to the March 17th workshop will mark their calendars and join us!  The post conference will focus on key points, take aways, and next steps.  Participants will share their goals and plans of how they will implement the strategies. (The login information will be provided prior to March 19th.)

Audience: K-6 Teachers, Coaches, Principals
