185- Language Development in Elementary Mathematics Classrooms

Wednesday, November 2, 2016: 11:00 AM-12:00 PM
Salon H (Philadelphia Marriott Downtown)

 

Lead Speaker:
James Brickwedde


 

Language-rich mathematics classrooms have students describe, justify, compare, and contrast thinking strategies. Using a visualization process where academic language is explored and developed, students collaborate to clarify and practice explanations. This session explores how these practices are implemented and how they impact student achievement.
