In this session, educators will explore effective strategies for utilizing small group instruction in middle school mathematics to support the diverse needs of all students. Participants will engage in thinking tasks designed to demonstrate how to create dynamic small group environments that foster collaboration, critical thinking, and a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts. We will discuss techniques for grouping students strategically, differentiating instruction, and utilizing formative assessments to guide instruction. By the end of the session, participants will walk away with practical tools and resources to implement small-group strategies that promote equitable learning outcomes and enhance student engagement in mathematics.
