Session 3: Problem Solving & Early Mathematics Development

It is essential that preschool students are provided with a strong foundation in early mathematics before engaging in math instruction in elementary school  This series will help educators understand the development of conceptual mathematical skills, how to build a foundation for mathematical thinking, and how to adapt mathematics instruction to make it accessible and meaningful to early math learners.

What you can expect from the session:

• Gain an understanding of the progression of math skill development in young learners, and how to foster this in students with disabilities.

• Examine how exploration with a variety of physical and digital resources can aid in the understanding of mathematical concepts, and how to provide adaptations for students with a range of disabilities. 

Learn how everyday routines and activities can build the foundations of mathematics competence in young children.
