Session VI Descriptions

71
Changing the Stigma that Math is "Hard" 
General Interest
Most people have a negative conception about mathematics – why is that? In my presentation, I share the reasons and the research behind this misfortune and present ideas on changing the common perspective and outlook of math. I will present ways teachers can design positive experiences for students in mathematics to give it a better reputation with the upcoming generations.
Courtney Herzog
McDaniel College
Room 3109

72
Let's Dispel the Myths About Women and Mathematics 
General Interest
Now is the time to be aware of the myths surrounding women and mathematics and to address them in the classroom. Working for equitable treatment of all students as we debunk these myths requires gender-specific strategies discussed in this interactive workshop.
Lorraine Howard

Beyond Explaining an Answer: Writing for a variety of purposes in the Mathematics Classroom
PreK-5
Writing in Mathematics needs to go further than just having students explain how they got their answer. In this session participants will learn about and explore a variety of writing purposes for the mathematics classroom. 
Nicholas Pyzik
Baltimore County Public Schools
Room 3118

77
Making Sense of Number Sense Routines
PreK- 5
You may hear people use the term number sense; but what does that mean? Join in learning how Number Sense Routines can deepen student’s facility with numbers, how routines promote confidence and the flexible thinking of both students and teachers.
Kristin Morrissey
Anne Arundel County Public Schools
Room 3116

78
Using Tiered Tasks to Foster Mathematical Proficiency in All Students
PreK-5
How do we create and implement tasks to build mathematical proficiency in all students? This session will introduce a tiered structure to develop real-world tasks that are aligned to standards, promote SMPs, and allow students to work at differentiated levels.
Jennifer Hilberg
Kelle Patton
Baltimore County Public Schools
Room 2182

Keep Calm and Coach
Leaders
Coaches have the tall task of leading with vision, helping to maintain a positive team culture, ensuring alignment of written, taught, and assessed curriculum, and so much more. This work can be rewarding and yet it can easily overwhelm even the most organized and diligent person. During this session, we will engage in some exercises and discuss strategies to help coaches establish healthy habits that promote overall well-being and stability for themselves and thus the teachers whom they lead.

Residency - It's Not Just for Doctors
Leaders
In this session, participants will learn about the planning and implementation of a school support model that provides consistent, ongoing coaching to identified middle and high school mathematics programs. Baltimore County Public Schools secondary mathematics resource teachers will share how this model was developed, different modifications that were implemented, and how it evolved through meaningful feedback. Takeaways include a responsive coaching framework that uses best practices grounded in.
