Accessing the Standards through Mathematical Reasoning - Would you like a teacher’s professional development workshop to model teaching in an engaging way, to create in you the same enthusiasm about learning we all endeavor to create in our students? Would you like to spend some quality time with other professionals as we analyze both the learning and the teaching each day of the program, rekindling that which moved each of us originally to become teachers? Would you like work together with other teachers near your grade level to trace the conceptual development of the toughest topics to teach for understanding like fractions or place value or negative exponents? Would you like to deepen your own understanding of some of the trickiest mathematical topics? Would you like to have FUN networking with other area teachers learning mathematics and talking about teaching?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, the 10th annual Invitational Institute is for you. Special attention is paid to the use of questioning strategies to reach higher levels of mathematical reasoning. Opportunities to analyze and to reflect about the questions used are provided through our modeling of supportive peer coaching. Teachers will find this instiute challenging to both the learners and the teachers in themselves.
