  • Inspired by highly successful strategies in Tufts University's Early Algebra Project, this session details how teachers can improve student understanding of number sense. Come engage in unit plans that align with the Common Core's Standards for Mathematical Practices by implementing inquiry-based problem solving. Number sense will be developed via rich algebraic problems.
