Leveraging Student Strengths with Mathematical Modeling in Cultural/Community Contexts in Grades 3-5

Description

Mathematical modeling engages elementary students in investigations of real-world phenomena in homes, schools, and communities. We will discuss the modeling cycle through tasks and mathematizing routines that leverage student mathematical thinking and lived experiences. Instructional design principles and curriculum adaption tools will be shared.
