Using Critical Thinking to Foster Number Sense in Elementary Mathematics Students

November 27, 2014 to November 27, 2014

  • Category: Online, Workshop
  • Region: Central Ontario, Eastern Ontario, GTA, Northern Ontario, Southern Ontario
  • Topic: Critical Thinking, Mathematics
  • Grades: Intermediate (grades 7-10), Junior (grades 4-6)

This session is an opportunity for junior and intermediate mathematics teachers to explore how tweaking their question and using collaborative classroom strategies can build deeper conceptual understandings in number sense. Using the Critical Thinking Consortium’s approach to powerful questioning in the mathematics classroom, this webinar will support teachers in a collaborative process of considering the research, instructional strategies, classroom ideas, and attitudes that deepen number sense and support achievement in elementary mathematics.

NOTE: This session is the second in a four-part series. Part 1 takes place on Oct. 30, with the remaining parts scheduled in early 2015.
