Learning the Language of Math
​

This page is designed for all things mathematical!
  • The video series will help you to identify the challenges that students encounter, as well as to provide insight into the research-based best practices you can implement, so that ALL of your students can co-exist successfully and happily in the world of math.
  • Don't panic!  Each video ranges from 3-8 minutes in length, since we know that we learn best when learning is chunked.
  • The articles at the bottom of the page are included as complementary reading, and they are referenced throughout the video series.
  • When you have completed the series, please share your anonymous feedback with me at this link: forms.gle/MjjzptfsG8JcCNND6​
