All Things Math

Math. That one word can produce great amounts of anxiety in many of us and many of our students. Today our group discusses all things math with our special guest, Caty Romero who is someone who knows math and loves it. Some of the topics included in today’s discussion are foundational concepts students need to know, common areas of struggle in mathematics, the C-R-A approach, our favorite visual strategies and structures we use, and much much more. We hope you enjoy this chat. Heck, it might even change your attitude toward math learning.
