After using CGI with children, teachers have a deeper, more personal understanding of the CGI framework and are ready to explore more challenging aspects of children’s mathematical thinking, such as:
- How teachers can organize their understanding of problem types and solution strategies so that they can efficiently access this understanding during instruction
- How knowledge of children’s thinking is essential to engaging children in the Standards of Mathematical Practice described by Arkansas Math Standards
- How teachers can increase students’ fluency with number facts by focusing on properties of operations as described by Arkansas Math Standards
