In this half-day session, you’ll learn about Mathology essentials and resources to support student learning. Through an assessment lens, explore three-part lesson activities and connections to the curriculum. Experience integrated lesson and assessment strategies.
In this interactive session, you’ll learn about math content and pedagogy through the District purchased resources of Mathology—Activity Kits, Mathology Little Books and Mathology.ca.
In this 2-day interactive session you will work through a one-day Mathology workshop. In addition, you will continue to learn about math content and pedagogy, reviewing the Learning Progression and Mathology components.
This course introduces school and district math leaders and administrators to the main components of Mathology purchased by the District— Activity Kits/ Mathology Little Books/Mathology.ca.
In addition, the place of the Learning Progression in understanding student development is highlighted in the role of assessment in moving students forward.
This workshop supports small groups of teachers with a specific focus on a selection of lessons in Mathology or in a selection of Math Little Books. The author of these lessons will meet virtually with a small group of teachers to discuss the math and pedagogy of the lesson and story in the Math Little Books. The Author would develop this practical session around the math story or Mathology lessons, including an interactive component with the teachers.
Teachers will experience a conversation with a Math Little Book Indigenous Author. The Author will develop this practical session about the math story, including indigenous ways of knowing and curriculum connections.
Students can experience a conversation with a Math Little Book Author, virtually in real time. The Author will share interesting ideas about the story and students will have the opportunity to ask the author questions in this interactive session.
In this webinar, you will learn about Do the Math essentials and resources to support student learning.
*Custom series webinars can be developed on an ongoing basis to support school and District Math priorities.
In this half-day session, you’ll learn about Do the Math essentials and resources to support student learning. Through an assessment lens, explore the unit and lesson structure and connections to the curriculum. Experience integrated lesson and assessment strategies.
Deepen your own understanding of fractions and related pedagogy, and discover how to use the assessment questions in the book, Rethinking Fractions, to select tasks and inform instruction. Together, we will consider how this research-based resource can support you in the classroom.
Rethinking Fractions: 8 Core Concepts to Support Assessment and Learning is based on a decade of research with over 80 teachers and 2000 students from Grades 3 to 9. The 8 Core Concepts form a trajectory of learning that builds a deep understanding of the complex and challenging topic of fractions.
Authors: Cathy Bruce, Tara Flyn and Shelley Yearly
Contains additional online materials. This resource will help students to develop a deep understanding of unit fractions (the base of all fractions); and the eight core concepts (the keys to unlocking fractions understanding).
For educators, this resource will help you to assess students’ understanding and possible misconceptions via the use of targeted, field-tested questions and recommended next steps that reveal student understanding; and respond to student needs.
In this highly interactive 2-day course, we focus on recognizing and assessing children’s early math thinking so that we can help them to develop more efficient addition and subtraction strategies.
During the two days we will:
What to Look For: Understanding and Developing Student Thinking in Early Numeracy (Print plus eText)
Author: Alex Lawson
In this unique resource, teachers can watch, listen and read about the strategies and underlying key ideas that children use to solve problems. That’s because this is not just a book, but also an eText with 50+ narrated videos.
This course is designed for math coaches, consultants, and administrators who want to dig deeper into the facilitator’s guide and extend their learning. Working on two levels—deepening math knowledge and providing facilitation support—this highly interactive learning session will equip you with the tools you need to lead learning in your school or district and use the facilitator’s guide to its full extent.
During the two days we will:
What to Look For: Facilitator’s Guide
This innovative approach to professional learning supports school- and district-based math coaches in two ways: by providing additional background information on What to Look For and by providing scaffolding to coaches who want to enhance their facilitation sessions.
This course is designed to meet the specific learning needs of administrators who want to support and extend their teachers’ learning about foundational math content. Working on two levels—deepening math knowledge and providing facilitation support—this highly interactive learning session will equip you with the tools you need to lead learning in your school or district.

Based on Dr. Cathy Marks Krpan’s book, Teaching Math with Meaning, this session will explore practical, research-based, teaching approaches that will help you to enhance student thinking and discourse in your mathematics program.
The focus will be on practices that will support you in creating a learning culture that enables students to develop self-regulation skills, engage in insightful discussions of mathematical ideas, and meaningfully represent/model mathematical concepts.
Teaching Math With Meaning takes a practical approach to embedding this deep learning in K to Grade 8 mathematics classrooms. Background information and links to research introduce a range of strategies and activities that you can implement in your classroom.
In this one-day, highly interactive session, develop a deeper understanding of young children’s geometry and spatial reasoning abilities. We will focus on five key strands related to geometry and spatial reasoning: Symmetry, Composing, Decomposing, and Transforming Two-Dimensional Shapes and Three Dimensional Objects, Locating, Orienting, Mapping, and Coding
Taking Shape: Activities to Develop Geometric and Spatial Thinking, K-2 Authors: Joan Moss, Catherine D. Bruce, Bev Caswell, Tara Flynn, Zachary Hawes
Enrich Your Geometry Curriculum and Extend Your Students’ Spatial Reasoning. This research-based resource is a unique blend of professional learning and classroom activities.
