Description
Let’s Empower Every Educator (E^3) to highlight the mathematical brilliance of all students as problem-solvers and problem-posers! We will engage in powerful problems across content areas such as Geometry, Statistics, and Algebra, modeling lessons that provide opportunities for students to have autonomy in problem-posing and problem-solving. Participants will identify types of Problem-Posing and explore ways to support our students as thinkers and doers of mathematics, shining a light on students' brilliance as they experience the wonder, joy, and beauty of mathematics to develop deep mathematical understanding.
