Number Talks are routines based on purposefully crafted problems that are solved mentally. Participants will learn:
* what a classroom number talk is;
* how to follow students' thinking and pose the right questions to build understanding;
* how to prepare for and design purposeful number talks; and
* how to develop grade-level-specific strategies for the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Research is based on Number Talks by Parrish and Choral Counting & Counting Collections: Transforming the PreK-5 Math Classroom by Megan Franke, Elham Kazemi, and Angela Chan Turrou.
NOTE: If you have the book, please bring it with you.
