They will discuss and give examples how to combine and embed proven strategies and tools for teaching diverse learners, and a widely accepted inquiry-based approach to teaching mathematics. The webinar is geared to upper elementary, middle, and high school mathematics teachers who have had limited preparation for teaching mathematics to English learners, their leaders in schools and districts, and university (mathematics) teacher education faculty. The material will be based on the presenters’ bestselling book, Making Mathematics Accessible to English Learners: A Guidebook for Teachers.
