Tired of watching your students struggle with number stories?

There’s a PD for that.

If you’re a K-3 math teacher and want your students to…

  • Persevere through problem-solving
  • Comprehend what’s being asked
  • Know which operations to use 
  • Visualize what’s happening

You've tried everything.

…and you’re ready to put in the work to make it happen, Structures of Equality is what you’ve been looking for.

Your kids groan when they see a story problem. Or they give up before they even start.

You’ve been told that key words and tricks don’t work. But no one told you what to replace them with. 

SoE 101: The Basics

In this PD, you’ll learn about the foundations of the 3 structures. 

You’ll explore the math main idea, learn what types of problems lend themselves to each structure, and understand the essential components students must include in their visual representations.

Join me for a 90-minute virtual session.
