Our Time TogetherBroken into 6 days3 hours of PD/dayFocus:
Teaching Mathematics Effectively Through: Creativity Investigation Differentiation Inclusion
![Page 3: PD Teaching Mathematics Effectively For Students of All Abilities](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815e7b550346895dcd01f2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Day 1Focus
How do we include all students?
What does differentiation mean?
How do we encourage our students’ creativity?
How do we become part of the “learning revolution?”
How does the language we use affect our students?

Questions for DiscussionHow do we allow students to be creative in mathematics?
In what ways in our classroom, can we prepare our students to be wrong in mathematics?
How can we value the strengths of our students and encourage them?
How can we incorporate the arts in mathematics?
How can we allow students “to move to think” in our classrooms?
Any other ideas from the video?

Discussion with the Learning RevolutionHow do we go about finding and developing our students’ “natural resources” in
mathematics?
How do we disenthrall ourselves from past math practices to initiate new practices?
How can we look at math in a non-linear way?
In our mathematics program, how do we move away from the “fast food” mentality?
How can we in mathematics feed our student’s passions?
How do we create conditions under which our students can flourish in mathematics?
How do we differentiate to help meet our students’ needs?
How is inclusion of students an important part of the learning revolution?

How do we help our students adapt to the challenges they will face?
How can we celebrate the adversity our students face?
How can we engage and support our students so they can share their gifts in mathematics?
How do we keep from putting lids on our students’ abilities?
How do we bring out the potential of every child in mathematics?

Review of TodayIn what ways, can you provide the students with
opportunities to be creative with mathematics?How in your teaching of mathematics can you
become a part of what Ken Robinson refers to as the “learning revolution?”
How can you empower your students in their abilities in mathematics and not limit them?
What questions do you have about today’s session?

Inclusion Article: Who Are Our Schools Really For? Protocol: The Final Word Take 10 minutes to review the article Choose one idea or topic that stands out 1st team member shares topic or idea, but makes no other
comments Round robin, each person comments on initial person’s reflection NO CROSS TALK! Initial person then has conversation return and they have the
Final Word Repeat pattern all the way around the group
