What's Missing In Math Instruc�on?

Much �me and energy are spent on planning math instruc�on. However, teachers are commen�ng that
they are not seeing the results that they seek. It is �me to see how we can strengthen math instruc�on
and learning from an evidence-based approach. The Science of Learning provides teachers with both an
understanding of how the brain learns and the tools to apply this to instruc�on. Four instruc�onal shi�s
will be shared that can be game-changers for teachers and students. It is about working smarter, not
harder. General Interest
