Multiplication and Division – The Landscape of Learning with Cathy Fosnot
Multiplication and Division - The Landscape of Learning
Using digital video of children at work in grade 3-5 classrooms, the development of the big ideas, strategies, and models related to a deep understanding of multiplication and division was examined during an in person session. These were placed on a “landscape of learning” – a learning trajectory that participants can use in planning instruction and assessing. We also examined ways to use contexts and mini-lessons to support development. This webinar is designed to allow participants to “continue the conversation” with Cathy Fosnot.
This is good for a group of teachers to listen together and discuss.
