Mathematics (Primary/Junior) Part 3 builds on Parts 1 and 2 and focuses on leadership in Primary/Junior Mathematics at the board or district level. Candidates explore strategies to implement large scale projects and initiatives in Mathematics, and to support teachers’ professional learning as they implement curriculum and improve students’ numeracy skills. Part of the course offers candidates an opportunity to undertake a Board- or District-focused action research project in mathematics.
