TDD 2025

This session will explore the mathematical ideas and processes that are important for young learners and the resources, structures and routines that might be used to help children make sense of such abstract concepts. A wonderful opportunity for us to share our practices to consider how mathematics can enhance children's play, and embed a playful approach when investigating the mathematics that surrounds us in authentic ways.

Allowing students to achieve success through accessible activities can help to build confidence in Math class. Presenting a range of difficulty within the same task allows students to have agency over what level they wish to attempt and can inspire them to further challenge themselves.  In this session we will look at some examples of how Visual Patterns can act as an avenue to introduce low floor / high ceiling activities in your classroom.


Target audience: Middle or Upper school teachers--not only math.
