Joy and thinking are not usually included in those pictures. This workshop, designed around Peter Lilijedahl’s book, </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics,</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> is designed to bring thinking and joy back to the mathematics classroom.</span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; padding: 9pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This workshop is for those who are new to the idea of Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics. We will experience ways to implement Building Thinking Classrooms in your classrooms. This is a great time to explore a new structure in your classrooms to give this year’s students opportunities for joy and learning and also prepare for the upcoming year. </span></p> <h2 style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; padding: 9pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 17pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The goals of this workshop are to:</span></h2> <ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;"> <li style="list-style-type: disc; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" dir="ltr"> <p style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 9pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Learn about Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics</span></p> </li> <li style="list-style-type: disc; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" dir="ltr"> <p style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Develop thinking behaviors in students.</span></p> </li> <li style="list-style-type: disc; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" dir="ltr"> <p style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Create an inclusive learning environment.</span></p> </li> <li style="list-style-type: disc; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" dir="ltr"> <p style="line-height: 1.38; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; padding: 9pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Encourage all learners to actively participate in mathematical exploration.</span></p> </li> </ul>
