In this session, participants will learn strategies and teaching techniques to reduce math anxiety among students of color. Students of color have historically performed low in mathematics achievement. Dr. Falcón will provide examples and curriculum instruction designs to decrease stress, anxiety, and skepticism. These approaches can increase student empathy, belonging, and retention of mathematical content. Some strategies discussed will include physical classroom space, engagement, procedures, routines, curriculum, and social-emotional support.
Your DreamBox Sr. Professional Development Specialist will show you how to utilize our three student lesson reports in DreamBox. These reports will provide information on a student’s past learning, future learning and an insight on a student’s actual answer choices in lessons played. Analyzing student lessons will provide an insight to DreamBox’s math pedagogy. Educators will also get a sneak peek at our new Student Facing Reports. Students will now be able to track their own learning.
Kindergarten will be assessing students in math at the beginning, middle, and end of the year. Come and see the test and learn how to administer this assessment and plan instruction based on the data.
Get a front row seat on how to organize your math classroom and planning using tips and tricks from a teacher's classroom who's favorite word is ORGANIZE. Organizing YOUR Google Drive, cluster focused resources including teacher made task cards and activities and creating a to do list that is realistic and seamless in keeping your planning process organized and simplistic.
Using SEL slides, I have found some fun things to discuss with my students that allows them to get to know me more, get to know each other more and I get to know them more. Either as a warm up or just a mental break in between notes.
We now know that the redesign of STAAR will require much more complex thinking for students. We will explore how math teachers and leaders can have a renewed focus on data and instruction through the lens of the next generation of STAAR. Rather than focusing heavily on learning gaps, focusing on opportunities for learning opens up growth possibilities for all students. Additionally, we will explore how championing the process standards can help teachers and students meet their full potential. This overview helps math teachers and leaders explore the elements of the redesigned STAAR test, align thinking in the classroom to STAAR 2.0, and adapt math instruction to re-emphasize the role of process
This session will highlight the new interactive question types specifically for math in Eduphoria-Aware. Tips and Tricks will be shared for searching item banks and creating your own.
Reading What? House Bill 3 has afforded us the opportunity to participate in the Texas Reading Academies in all contents grades K-3. The goal is to increase teacher knowledge and implementation of evidence-based practices to positively impact student literacy achievement. We will help you register and enroll in the course so you can begin working through the TEA modules this summer. We will provide you with information to help support your work in the modules throughout the 2022-2023 school year. Target participants - 2nd-3rd Grade non-RLA teachers, New to Profession K-3 teachers, Elementary SPED teachers, New elementary coaches (if haven’t previously completed), New principals and assistant principals, C.O.

What's this National Board thing we keep hearing about? Do I want to do it? If I do, what will that look like for me? Am I a good fit? I am currently pursuing a national board certification in secondary math with the LISD Cohort. In this session, I will pose and answer general questions about the experience so far and we will examine what the National Board considers to be the characteristics of accomplished teaching. For elementary teachers in attendance, the certification you would pursue has significant differences from the secondary, but 80% of the information in this session will still apply to you.
Lubbock ISD Educators will take a deep dive into the DreamBox Predictive Insights student data report and how to utilize DreamBox Proficiency reports to support a student’s weekly prediction. Along with Proficiency Standards, educators will understand how to created targeted Assignments based on a student’s DreamBox Predictive Insight.

Ways to involve students in taking ownership of their math data on an ongoing basis. When students take ownership, they are usually more motivated to work toward improvement in math skills.
In this session, we will discuss how to use pre-made Desmos activities in the elementary and secondary math classroom and how to use Desmos to easily make your own digital card sorts! Make the most out of this session by bringing a Chromebook or computer (some activities will work on mobile devices, but not all). This session will be applicable for grades 3-12.
Come explore the new ways to view data in Aware that support the new item types. Basic reporting will be shown all the way to custom creation of reports. Join me for the data party!

Do you have questions about problem-solving and the different problem types? Let’s spend some time looking at the many different problem types and the best graphic organizers/tools for solving those problems.
The session will examine how the Frayer Model can be used in math classes as a tool to increase vocabulary efficiency and proficiency. The model assists students with limited English proficiency and those English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). Games such as the Pyramid Game, Kahoot, etc.. can increase student engagement in learning vocabulary in an enjoyable manner. The Frayer Model components will be discussed along with some practice and examples. Word Walls can be used as a running document of the vocabulary terms learned; a visual math vocabulary library held throughout the year. Math posters in the classroom can also provide vocabulary and content definitions as visual resources in attaining/retaining math knowledge.

Have you ever added the process standards to your lesson plans, but not really thought about what all they mean? There are so many good things packed inside these standards, and we will be unpacking them and talking about ways to get students to really THINK. Hopefully you will walk away with some practical tools you can incorporate into any lesson! Dawn is the Elementary Coordinator of Math for Lubbock Cooper ISD.

In this session Tarah Williams and Casey Wilkins will provide a template for data tracking. This is a tool we both used in our classroom this year that held students accountable and not only showed them their gaps but helped them to see their strengths as well. You will be able to adjust this template to fit the needs of your students and classroom. Whether it is just for CFA’s, District Assessment or both you will leave with a data tracker to help your students set attainable goals throughout the year. This tracker will help teachers hit Domain 2.1 Distinguished which systematically enables students to set goals for themselves and monitor their progress over time.
