Ready to bring your math lessons to life for all learners? In this fast-paced, fun 45-minute session, we’ll dive into how to make differentiation in elementary math feel doable — and even energizing — using STEMscopes curriculum. You'll walk away with practical ways to connect with your interventionist, collaborate with your team, and lean into your instructional coaches. Plus, learn how internalizing your lesson ahead of time can transform your classroom delivery. Come for the tips, stay for the laughs, and leave ready to meet every student where they are!
Explore your definition of fluency in mathematics and take a look at different utilities and strategies that will help build procedural competence in your students
What if grades told the real story of student learning? In this eye-opening session, discover how Standards-Based Grading shifts the focus from points to progress. We’ll explore how to clearly communicate what students know and can do, support growth over time, and bring clarity to grading practices. Leave with practical strategies and tools to make grading more meaningful, consistent, and student-centered.
Small Group Reading Work Stations: (Grades 1–3) Discover practical strategies for designing and implementing effective small group work stations that promote student independence and engagement. This session will explore how to structure your classroom, select purposeful resources (including those from HMH), and establish clear processes to ensure smooth implementation. Learn how to hold students accountable for their learning while maximizing instructional time for small-group reading instruction.
Thinking maps are visual representations of knowledge. They enable students to think their way through new information and process ideas. Thinking Maps use enables students to engage in the complex thinking required for academic tasks. Come learn with me how students can process this information and take it off the map to achieve higher level thinking skills.

New teacher? New to elementary school? New to a grade level? Join us as we share our steps to set in motion a successful classroom by creating a structured, consistent and stable environment for our students and teachers.
Unlock the secret to strong academic writing! In this hands-on session, we’ll break down the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) framework and explore practical strategies to help students write clear, convincing arguments. Whether you're teaching science, reading, or social studies, CER builds thinking skills that stick. Walk away with ready-to-use tools and engaging classroom ideas to boost student voice and critical thinking.
This presentation focuses on creating tiered formative assessments using Stemscopes. It emphasizes the importance of formative assessments in guiding instruction and highlights the limitations of using full assessments for this purpose. The process involves selecting mastery goals and identifying prerequisite and mid-level skills to scaffold student learning. Ultimately, the data collected from these assessments allows for targeted instruction and intervention, enhancing student outcomes.
Join us for an interactive session exploring Pam Harris’s first major addition strategy!
Discover how to use problem strings to reveal student thinking, foster numerical flexibility, and model efficient strategies. You’ll leave with practical tools to enhance student discourse and deepen conceptual understanding in your classroom. This session will focus on the first of five key addition strategies—stay tuned for sessions on strategies two through five coming soon!
