Overview
The most powerful learning occurs when we use different areas of the brain. When students work with numbers, they are using a different area of the brain than when they work with visual information. In this workshop, participants will define how visual representations support math reasoning, explore strategies to reinforce student use of math representations and build a plan around a specific lesson, representation, or routine to support reasoning with representations.
