240- Number Operations, Problem Solving, Critical Thinking—Make the Connections!

Thursday, April 10, 2014: 2:45 PM-4:00 PM
Grand Salon 15-18 (Hilton)
Lead Speaker:
Wendy L. Klassen


Learning the "why," "when," and "how" of number operations will lead to a better understanding of the "what" to do. Knowing only "what" to do may help in computing, but it is ineffective unless one can apply those strategies, approaches, and solutions in situations that require problem solving and critical thinking. See what you can do with students in grades 3–5!
