Mathematics classrooms are often littered with rules that expire and tricks without meaning or connection. These rules and tricks create a weak mathematical foundation. Rather than simplifying mathematics instruction, implement routines that amplify deep mathematical learning. In this session, participants will get an introduction to the eight mathematical language routines and strategies to implement in the classroom. Mathematical Language Routines support high-quality instruction for all learners, including English Language Learners and Special Education students. It also supports literacy, language development, and vocabulary in the mathematics classroom. These adaptable routines are found in the top mathematics resources and can be embedded into any curriculum. Come to this interactive session ready to amplify learning in your classroom.
