Overview

Help students experience mathematics as a rich, connected, and meaningful subject. This interactive workshop focuses on teaching through big ideas—core mathematical concepts that unify and elevate individual standards. Research shows that this approach increases student engagement and achievement and supports learning for all students.

Designed for K–12 teachers, leaders, and administrators, this workshop offers strategies for engaging all learners through open-ended, in-depth content. Participants will:

  • Explore grade-specific big ideas and mathematical standards in targeted breakout groups
  • Investigate how to prioritize and connect standards across domains
  • Experience tasks and approaches that foster curiosity, depth, and understanding

Featuring a keynote by Jo Boaler, join Cathy Williams and the youcubed team live online to discover how teaching through big ideas can transform your math classroom! Bring your team to plan and get the year off to a great start!

The workshop begins at 9:00 am each day and ends at 3:00 pm each day.
