Welcome to California Mathematics Council - South’s 2015 Annual Conference Program! This year’s conference is in Fabulous Palm Springs, Friday, November 6 and Saturday, November 7! Please use this interface to navigate session. You can search by speaker, grade span, strand, and strategies. You can also create an account, upload your contact information and see speaker handouts. Please note, adding a session to your schedule on this website does not guarantee a seat in the session. All sessions are first-come, first-seated and all rooms are cleared between sessions. Please watch this video tutorial on how to fill out conference evaluations. Follow us: @CAMathCouncil #CMCS15 Thank you for attending! CMC-S Annual Conference Program Committee
Counting complex collections in the Upper grades enriches and deepens our work in developing number concepts and key mathematical properties. This session will focus on why we devote time out of our full math curriculum to count with older students._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
How do you know what students already know? Learn about formative assessment practices and strategies teachers use to make ongoing instructional decisions based off student thinking. See the effects of feedback on student learning._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
We will share how we differentiate our lessons through word problem types, number choices, and problem solving strategies. We will discuss the different ways students solve problems and the teacher moves that push them towards building efficiency._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
Context matters: Think, Move, Construct. Learn how to use childrenÕs natural curiosity to engage them in deep mathematical thinking around real-life contexts. Examples from both Dual Language and English-only classroom projects will be shared._x000B__x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
Come see how children develop number sense through counting and the exploration of numbers in the immediate environment using a CGI approach. _x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
To meet the needs of students and teachers during the implementation of the Common Core, our district invested resources in CGI Professional Learning. We will discuss changes to our model along the way, lessons learned, and our continued vision._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
Learn how childrenÕs natural curiosity and imagination inspire mathematical story problems that allow them to deeply engage in rich, meaningful problem solving tasks. Walk away feeling confident you have strategies to implement in your classroom._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
When students begin with a warm-up, they are primed for problem solving. In this interactive session, participants will walk away with warm-up activities that empower productive talk, hook children into a lesson, and set students up for success._x000B__x000B_EVALUATION POLL CODE:
