4.7.8 Imagine the Possibilities: Transform Math Instruction Using Strategies from Mentoring Mathematical Minds
n this session, participants will learn instructional strategies that support advanced learners’ needs and provide rigor for all by using components of the Mentoring Mathematical Minds (M³) curriculum. Through modeling of the M³ format — Initiate, Investigate, and Communicate — and specific teaching strategies, we will explore ways to dig more deeply into the content, providing depth and complexity within the participant’s core curriculum. When used intentionally in the classroom, these strategies encourage student participation, provide challenge, extend thinking, clarify understanding, and provide a platform for students to take academic risks while having their unique needs met.
