Classroom and School Learning Opportunities
Education is not the same as it was 5 years ago, especially in the post-Covid era. Educators of all kinds are working harder than ever to address the learning gaps students may have while dealing with the stress of everyday teaching. Additionally, many of today’s teachers are coming into the classroom with a wide variety of education backgrounds requiring specific learning opportunities that are unique to their individual needs.

Professional development has to change to meet the ever-changing needs of this new educational landscape. The same PD from 5 years ago will not be an adequate fit for today’s busy teacher. Let’s create meaningful experiences that give teachers actionable steps to take right away while expanding their content knowledge through customized professional development that teachers actually want to attend.

Customized Professional Development
Larger companies provide canned presentations that aim to present in a one-size-fits-all kind of approach. While these can work for broad topics, professional development with Math with Purpose is customized around your school’s specific needs. Whether scheduling an in-person or virtual event, each session is specifically tailored to what your staff actually needs and wants to THRIVE in the classroom.

Educators are busier than ever. They need a resource that can simplify their life.

Using the Math with Purpose Video Library, teachers can confidently know they are accessing quality that will get results with their students.
​
Each 2-10 minute video can be used for small bursts of professional learning to help build teaching confidence by using them for planning. They can also be assigned to students for review or even shared with parents for at home support.

Teaching Resources That Go Beyond the Textbook
Our curriculum shapes the way we teach, but in an effort to meet the needs of varying learners, it’s important to have additional tools in your toolbox. Forget searching for resources and hoping you land on a good one. Consider a grade level spiral review or a project-based learning task that challenges students to apply the skills learned. Each activity uses research-based strategies and video to help students practice the skills they are learning in class maximizing instruction in a fun and unique way.

I'm sure you get this a lot, but I just watched all your videos from Primary Mathematics Grade 4 Chapter 3, and the educator video called Development of Division Algorithms was AMAZING.

I particularly appreciated the real-world examples you incorporated, which greatly enhanced my learning experience. Thank you for your dedication and for creating such an enriching and supportive learning environment.
