2025 Summer SPLASH | Hands-On Math Learning (Secondary Math NCCAT Badge 2) | Facilitated by Curriculum and Instruction | Open District-Wide | Riverside High School Room A213
Wednesday June 18, 2025 8:30am - 4:00pm EDT
Presenters: Alina Castillo | alina_castillo@dpsnc.net | 6-12 Math Specialist; Kenya Lawrence | kenya_lawrence@dpsnc.net | 6-12 Math Specialist
Location: Riverside High School Room A213
Description: In this seminar, we will focus on strengthening conceptual teaching and learning in the secondary mathematics classroom. Participants will explore the Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) model as a powerful framework for building deep, transferable mathematical understanding. Through hands-on engagement with tools such as Hands-on Equations, Algebra Tiles, and geometric models, teachers will gain practical strategies for making abstract concepts accessible and meaningful to all learners. Join us as we bring mathematics to life through intentional, research-based practices that support student reasoning, retention, and confidence.
