This is an online book study via Google Classroom. Extending Children's Mathematics was written to extend the ideas of CGI to fractions and decimals. The book is devoted to studying how students' learning of computation with large numbers, fractions, decimals, and algebraic thinking can be connected to what they already understand about whole number operations. Teachers may use any curriculum, with these strategies, to teach math for understanding.
This PD is offered through Google Classroom, but there will be opportunities to get help face-to-face if you prefer. So, whether you are a novice with technology or an expert, you can be successful with this blended PD! The timeline is flexible to allow you to work around your schedule. Face-to-face support provided on June 1, June 22, July 13, and July 27. I will be available June 1 to assist anyone who needs help getting on Google Classroom or registering for the course on Google Classroom. Participants are responsible for purchasing their own book.
