Engaging Math Students with 5 Simple Tweaks
It is possible to engage all students in the learning of mathematics no matter how diverse the needs of your students are. 5 practical ways to increase engagement will be modeled with time given for participants to practice & create. Ideas for reviewing curriculum, having students rely on other students and how to empower students to find information for themselves will be shared. Every idea is easy to implement in any mathematics classroom.
Participants who attend this session will be able to:?

- Implement 5 practical ways to increase engagement in their own classrooms.
- How this framework differs from traditional classroom expectations
