	View Details Connecting the Standards: How Does Multiplication and Division Fluency Develop? Dive into the rich mathematical progression of multiplication and division as outlined by the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). This dynamic workshop invites educators to explore how multiplication and division concepts are developed across the elementary grades, supporting students in building deep conceptual understanding alongside procedural fluency. Participants will trace the trajectory of learning from early equal groups and array models to the development of standard algorithms, all while emphasizing the importance of reasoning, place value understanding, and the properties of operations. Through engaging tasks, classroom-ready tools, and collaborative discussions, this session will empower educators to make purposeful instructional decisions that align with the standards' intent.

	View Details Connecting the Standards: How Does Addition and Subtraction Fluency Develop? Join us for an in-depth, hands-on professional learning experience designed to deepen your understanding of how the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) support the development of students’ conceptual and procedural understanding of addition and subtraction across the elementary grades. In this interactive workshop, participants will examine the progression of addition and subtraction standards from Kindergarten through Grade 4, focusing on how the standards are intentionally structured to build a coherent understanding of place value, number sense, and algorithmic thinking. Using sample tasks and grade-level resources, educators will explore how students move from concrete representations and strategies to increasingly efficient, generalizable algorithms.
