FREE Workshops: Two In-Person Options and One Follow-Up Zoom Gathering for All
K - 5 educators!
Are you hoping to bring your students outside as the weather gets cooler but want to keep math learning moving forward? Join a group of K-5 educators at one of two locations to find ways to bring math content to life outdoors with your young mathematicians.
For one day, you will work together to explore Numeracy in Nature and Teach ME Outside materials and adapt them to your setting. Discover ways to:
- Use natural materials to represent math problems
- Find and understand math in nature
- And use math to investigate authentic outdoor problems
We will gather virtually via Zoom a few weeks later to celebrate successes and explore ways to overcome obstacles.
