Our five foci
Every session lands in one of these. Pick the one that fits your work best.
Coaching
Growing each other’s content and pedagogical knowledge. What helps us keep growing with and from each other?
Collaboration
Centering all student voices and diverse ways of sense-making, so learners read their mathematical world.
Content
High-demand cognitive tasks that bring STEAM into math class and connect ideas to the world around us.
Communicators
Building academic language that supports every learner in processing and explaining their understanding.
Culture
A culture of learning among all educators and students — learning labs, lesson study, and the CA Math Framework.
Why spend a Saturday with us?
