Adult Numeracy Network Strand Sessions - COABE 2018: Materials and Contact Information

 
Dear Heroes of Adult Numeracy and HSE math teaching,
 
The Adult Numeracy Network sponsors a strand of math & numeracy related workshops at every COABE. There were so many great workshops at the last conference in March and I wanted to share some of the resources, both for teachers who were there and of course, for teachers who were not.
  • Any session title that is BOLD and Blue is a link to the materials shared at that workshop.
  • Many of the presenters are on Twitter - when that is the case I included their Twitter handle so you can find them there. You can also search Twitter using the hashtags #ANNmath or #ANNunder10. <Note: You don't need to have your own Twitter account to search Twitter or view posts>
  • Two of the workshops listed below - Melissa Braaten's "Key Concepts in Proportional Reasoning" and Sarah Lonberg-Lew's "Using Visuals to Develop Conceptual Understanding: Singapore Strips" have corresponding articles in the latest issue of the Math Practitioner. The Math Practitioner is the ANN journal that comes out three times a year. If you would like to learn more about ANN, the Math Practitioner or becoming a member of ANN, click here.
yours in productive struggle,
 
Mark

Pre-Conference: Putting Our Own Maths on Before Helping Students

In addition to sharing their resources, the team that organized the ANN pre-conference session has been recreating the activities of the day online through the LINCS listserv for us all to play along at home.

These are awesome!    I was perusing the surface area and volume lessons an d I'm wondering if students still get that sheet of formulas.   (I couldn't get to the last link -- not sure what I'd have had to already signed up for...)
