Number Talks for Middle School Mathematics
Thursday February 13, 2025 11:45am - 12:45pm MST
In collaboration with three school divisions in Alberta and funded by the Research Partnerships Program of Alberta Education, Number Talks were implemented over four months in Grades 4 - 8. Our goal was to determine if the implementation of Number Talks would serve to increase the competence and confidence of students in their numeracy skills. We had approximately 30 teachers and 300 students participate in the research project. This session will present the research findings and the implications for teacher practice.

Beyond Word ID....Building Comprehension in Grades 3-6
Thursday February 13, 2025 2:15pm - 3:15pm MST
Join me for a professional development session aimed at enhancing your teaching approach to reading. This workshop is designed to shift educators' thinking from a whole language perspective to research-based practices that emphasize explicit instruction in skills and strategies aligned with the Simple View of Reading.

Session Highlights:

- Research-Based Practices: Learn how to implement a structured scope and sequence across all strands of learning, ensuring that your students develop into skilled comprehenders and constructors of meaning.

- Fluency and Comprehension Strategies: Gain access to proven, research-supported strategies to effectively teach reading fluency and comprehension, helping students navigate texts with confidence and understanding.

- Developing Complex Thinkers: Explore methods for cultivating students as fluent readers and critical thinkers through the integration of morphological analysis, inference, and analysis. Enhance your vocabulary instruction to empower students in their reading journey.

This session is an invaluable opportunity for educators to refine their instructional practices, support student growth, and foster a love for reading. Join me to enrich your teaching toolkit and make a meaningful impact on your students' literacy development!
