Making Math Matter: It’s a Way of Life with Infinite Possibilities

Session 201 will be held in 101 A from 1:00-1:50.

Have Students Discover Several Quadra�c Equa�on Paterns: Vertex, Sum of Solu�ons…More!

Crea�vely u�lize graphing technology to create, recognize, and generalize paterns of graphs of quadra�c
equa�ons. Make fascina�ng connec�ons among zeros, factors, axis of symmetry, sums of solu�ons,
vertex coordinates, quadra�c formula - rela�ng to the coefficients a,b,c in the standard form y = ax2 +bx
+ c. You will be amazed! Grades 10 - 12

Tom Reardon, Fitch High School / Youngstown State University (OH)

Session 202 will be held in 101 B from 1:00-1:50.

Leveraging the Power of the TI-Nspire CX II in Algebra through Calculus

Unlock student poten�al with the TI-Nspire CX II! Learn to use this tool to boost student learning for high-
stakes tests and in your classroom. Explore func�ons with mul�ple representa�ons, uncover overlooked
features, and highlight FREE resources. Come ready to share what's working for you! Grades 6 - 12

Daniel Wilkie, Texas Instruments

Session 203 will be held in 102 A from 1:00-1:50.

Differen�ated Math Centers: Support and Prac�ce for All Students (K-2)

Engaging in “just right” math centers daily promotes student growth because we are mee�ng them
where they are. Par�cipants will explore ways to use Differen�ated Math Centers that allow students
�me to prac�ce math topics at their own level. Let’s check out some ways to fill math gaps year-round!
Grades PreK - 2

Cindy Washington, Hand2Mind

Session 204 will be held in 102 B from 1:00-1:50.

Building Vocabulary in Geometry & Algebra I

Students need opportuni�es to ac�vely engage with mathema�cs vocabulary in meaningful ways. We
will share ideas for designing experiences where students explore math concepts through the lens of
hands-on ac�vi�es, cross-curricular connec�ons, literature, and technology. Grades 6 - 8
