In this program, we will investigate strategies for engagement, creativity, critical thinking, and inclusivity. Come be a part of a (virtual) community of thoughtful math teachers and learners that will explore innovative ideas and captivating tasks to make math class matter to our students.

This five-part series will cover effective assessment and equitable grading practices. Participants will also have the chance to design a unit around essential learning goals.

Based on what is core to our Teaching Foundations Summer Institute, this ongoing program dives deeper into the practice of curriculum design. Using the approaches of Culturally Responsive Pedagogy and Universal Design for Learning and the framework of Teaching for Understanding, participants will engage in workshopping lessons and units over the course of our five sessions together.

The Teaching Foundations program is designed to support the growth and success of all teachers—particularly those in their early years at independent schools—by focusing on foundational areas of classroom teaching.
