Concept-Based Mathematics Prek-12

About this workshop


This workshop will cover the concept based curriculum design model specifically for mathematics. All content will be based on Dr Jennifer Chang Wathall's book "Concept Based Mathematics; Teaching for Deep Understanding in Secondary Schools" and everyone will be required to have a copy as this is the workbook for the workshop. Many early years and primary examples will be provided during the workshop. The book itself is 90% for grades Pre-K-12.


Here are our guiding questions: 

  • Why is it important for students to learn conceptually? 

  • What are the facts, processes and concepts in mathematics? 

  • How do I craft generalizations in mathematics? How do I craft quality guiding questions? 

  • How do I plan units of work for concept-based mathematics curriculum? 

  • How do I captivate and engage students? 

  • Practical strategies for creating rich learning experiences in the classroom 


After this workshop you will be able to: 

  • Understand the concept-based model for mathematics 

  • Write quality generalizations and guiding questions. 

  • Use a unit web to plan a concept based unit. 

  • Design engaging, rich learning experiences for your students. 

  • Use formative assessment strategies to inform teaching and learning. 

  • Create unit plans that focus on deep conceptual understanding
