🤩 First Grade Teachers! 🤩

Place value is a HUGE part of math in first grade…

But that also means there are a lot of opportunities for students to get stuck. 😵‍💫

Imagine how it would feel to quickly pinpoint WHY your student is struggling and know WHAT you could do to help!

🤯 Game-changing right?

Join our ✨Free PD Workshop✨ where we’ll unlock first grade place value together!

I think about this quote a lot. I had the pleasure of attending a week-long workshop with Kathy Richardson about six years ago. While sitting with her and discussing the struggle between keeping to a scope and sequence and giving time for our students to work through the concepts, she said this.

It has stayed with me, and it’s really what sparked my desire to create a space where teachers could dig into the progression of skills and how to provide time for students to work through concepts.

I want us to really understand HOW students develop math concepts, so we can best support our students... whether that aligns with our curriculum pacing or not.

What comes up for you when you read this? How does this relate to your experiences in the classroom?

If this sparks YOUR interest in digging into the progression of place value concepts, I’m hosting a FREE workshop and I’d love to see you there.
