Differentiation—Meeting the Needs of All Learners All teachers of mathematics face the challenge of meeting the instructional needs of a wide range of students. This course helps teachers understand what it means to support all students by differentiating three aspects of the math curriculum—content, process, and product. Teachers examine a variety of approaches that help them make instructional adjustments to content, provide activities that address how different students learn, and offer a variety of ways for students to demonstrate what they’ve learned. Grades K–8.

Supporting English Language Learners in Math ClassSupporting English Language Learners in Math Class helps teachers address two significant goals for their ELL students—developing proficiency in English and developing mathematical understanding. To that end, activities help teachers amplify rather than simplify the role of language in math class. They learn to explicitly structure experiences so that all students, but especially ELLs, can engage in conversations about math in English so that they may better understand the content. In addition, participants are introduced to a variety of strategies to give learners access to mathematical concepts, such as effectively using manipulatives, posing problems in familiar contexts, and activating prior knowledge. Grades K–5.
