The purpose of this webinar is to introduce teachers, administrators, board mathematics leads, and others to the Lessons Learned document for M4 and how to use it. The document is intended as a support for all elementary teachers, in particular grades Primary – Grade 3 teachers. There are three Lessons Learned in this document. Each Lesson Learned will be discussed in relation to the assessment results, expected pedagogy, next steps in instruction for a class or individual students, and appropriate methods and activities for assessing student learning. The document is a wonderful support for professional development.

Equality is one of the essential understandings that students must acquire as they learn mathematics. This is a quest that begins in grade Primary and continues into senior high school. Learn how this big idea unfolds from grades Primary to 3 and discover how this one big idea can set students up for ongoing mathematical success. Topics explored during this webinar will include equality as balance; how equality is tied to partitioning and part-whole reasoning; common misconceptions about equality; and the types of tasks that build the concept of equality.
