Phase: Launch

Available July 2024

Overview

M Math K-5 units are designed to tell a mathematical story that helps students explore concepts and develop number sense over time. To bring this to life, teachers need to understand the learning progression of a unit and how the lessons are sequenced to help students build fluency. In this workshop, teachers will have the opportunity to collaboratively plan an upcoming unit and lesson.

Outcome

I leverage the curriculum’s problem-based structures in Kiddom to plan meaningful learning experiences for my students.
