What Should Every Junior High Teacher Know About the New Grades 4-6 Math Curriculum?
Thursday February 6, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am MST
ECC - Salon 09
So, you aren’t teaching a new curriculum yet but what have Grades 4-6 students learned that you already do? How might that change what a current 7 or 8 classroom could look like? Come join a fast paced session on what’s new - old and somewhere inbetween. Try some of the manipulatives that students will be familiar with - how might you implement these in your class now? How might assessment look different? Put your track shoes on and join in the exploration. Participants will receive access to support documents outlining the changes.

Math Vocabulary - What Exactly is the Correct Term in Our New Math Grades 7-10?
Thursday February 6, 2025 10:15am - 11:15am MST
ECC - Salon 09
So many of the terms we use each day in mathematics classes are the very concepts we want our students to learn and make connections with. Using the appropriate terminology can provide clarity and consistency. Do your grade partners use the same language as you? Would students entering different math classrooms in your school hear the same language? Come and check out some of the math terminology we have for you to engage with.

Games Aren't Just for the Young - They Teach!
Thursday February 6, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm MST
ECC - Salon 09
Getting students excited about their learning and engaging them are great stepping stones to having them deepen their own learning. A well crafted engagement activity can serve as a replacement for the traditional set of questions in a textbook. Your presenters both taught PAT/DIP courses so we understand the value of time and the pressures of getting through it all! Come join us as we share some activities that you can take back and implement in your own classrooms.

Are you interested in trying Structured Word Inquiry (SWI) with your class, but not sure where to start? I'll share the daily lessons and games that I used with a Grade 2 class to help us learn about word families and the logic of spelling.

Phonological and Morphological Awareness Using Structured Word Inquiry
Thursday February 6, 2025 2:00pm - 3:00pm MST
ECC - Salon 09
Structured Word Inquiry investigates English spelling to find the logic of the spelling system. It is known for building morphological awareness, but it also embeds many phonological awareness activities. Come see how you can use spelling work to build phonological awareness in your students.

All Aboard for Algebra!
Friday February 7, 2025 10:15am - 11:15am MST
ECC - Salon 09
Many of the Algebraic concepts that lived in junior high are now seen by and are engaging Division 2 students. Roll up your sleeves, one more time and dive into the manipulatives that can help us engage our learners in these algebraic concepts. Knowing ‘why’ we do what we do in algebra is very important to students making those valuable connections.

Case Studies and More! Unpacking Concepts in the New Science Curriculum
Friday February 7, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm MST
ECC - Salon 09
How do we engage students in learning all the new concepts in their science curriculum? Learning e terms and their definitions is always a starting point but its just surface level learning. This session will look at ways that we can ask our students to become independent thinkers and start to draw connections between what they know and where we need them to go. Participants will take part in several interactive activities that they can adapt to their own student levels and use within the classroom. Yup, another roll up your sleeve event!

Outcomes, Triangulation and Gradebooks - OH MY!
Friday February 7, 2025 2:00pm - 3:00pm MST
ECC - Salon 09
We know that tests and traditional grading are not necessarily the most effective for assessing and reporting student learning, but how to make the transition from what we’ve always done to what we want to do? This session will share ideas and resources for tracking student progress, setting up an outcome based gradebook and reporting achievements in a way that meaningfully describes what students know and can do.
