Math Webinar

Parents-

I am excited to share that the Waukazoo Montessori teachers will be participating in a math webinar through the American Montessori Society next week.  We have been given the "go-ahead" to tailor our professional development at Waukazoo to a Montessori focus; we will all be working together throughout the year to improve and refine our Montessori instruction!

The following describes our research next week:


The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) has designated 4 processes—communication, reasoning, problem solving, and connections—as the essentials for 21st-century math fluency. This Webinar will present a series of lessons, assessments that extend classroom observations, and activities beyond planned lessons, which support students in developing these processes through practice with the hands-on math experiences that nurture sustained mathematical literacy.
