Course Description

In this course, we are going to look at and create Math Toolkits that should be a part of any ongoing Math Workshop or Guided Math Program. We will discuss specific concrete, paper, and digital tools as well as templates! Both individual student toolkits and the Classroom as a Toolkit will be talked about extensively. We will explore in detail what they are, how to use them, when to use them, who should use them and where to use them. Math toolkits are one of the major keys to building mathematical proficiency. The price includes full access to the course and materials for 10 months.
