SUMMARY:Addition and Subtraction: A Coherent Story of Problem Types
DESCRIPTION:In this elementary-focused session\, participants will explore how coherence in mathematics emerges through intentional connections among addition and subtraction problem types. Educators will examine common word problem structures—such as joining\, separating\, part-part-whole\, and comparison—and how these problem types develop across grade levels. Using the progression outlined in the TEKS\, participants will analyze how learning builds over time and how connecting new problem types to students’ prior experiences supports deeper understanding. The session will highlight models and representations that support student reasoning and help teachers plan instruction that tells a connected\, meaningful story of addition and subtraction.

DESCRIPTION:In this session\, participants will examine how thoughtful task selection and purposeful questioning set the stage for meaningful student thinking and mathematical independence. Using a task-quality rubric\, educators will analyze and select tasks that promote conceptual understanding and strategic reasoning rather than answer-getting. Participants will also explore questioning strategies that surface student thinking\, press for clarity\, and support students in making sense of mathematics on their own. By the end of the session\, teachers will leave with tools and examples for designing learning experiences where students do the cognitive work and build confidence as problem solvers.

SUMMARY:Choose Love: When You’ve Said “Sit Down” 10 Times
DESCRIPTION:Let’s be honest - when behaviors are high and time is short\, “Choose Love” can feel like one more thing on your plate.If you’ve ever thought\,&nbsp\;“This is great… but what about that kid?”—this session is for you.We’ll bridge the gap between behavior management and heart work by giving you simple\, realistic ways to use Choose Love in your classroom—especially in the moments that feel the hardest.This isn’t about excusing behavior—it’s about understanding what’s driving it and responding in a way that actually leads to change. Structure and support don’t compete… they work together.Walk away with practical strategies that support regulation\, improve behavior\, and actually make your day-to-day feel more manageable.

SUMMARY:Scaffolding Instruction without Decreasing Rigor: Moving Students from Supported Practice to Independent Thinking
DESCRIPTION:In today’s classrooms\, teachers are often faced with a difficult challenge: how do we maintain grade-level rigor while still supporting struggling readers\, multilingual learners\, and students receiving special education services? This session introduces a practical\, step-by-step instructional framework that scaffolds learning without lowering expectations. Participants will explore how to use structured supports\, including anticipation guides\, targeted annotation guides\, collaborative reading\, Harkness-style discussion\, and a jigsaw short-constructed response writing protocol\, to gradually release responsibility to students and build independence with complex texts and STAAR-aligned writing tasks. Attendees will see how these strategies reduce cognitive overload\, increase engagement\, and help all learners access rigorous academic standards. This highly interactive session explains models the full lesson cycle from start to finish\, allowing participants to experience the strategies as students. Teachers will leave with ready-to-use tools such as annotation guides\, sentence stems\, structured discussion protocols\, revision checklists\, and writing scaffolds that can be implemented immediately in any secondary content classroom. Designed for general education\, special education\, and multilingual settings\, this approach emphasizes accessibility\, collaboration\, and high-level thinking for every learner. By the end of the session\, participants will confidently apply a system that maintains rigor\, improves discourse and writing outcomes\, and increases student independence across content areas.

SUMMARY:Stretching Minds: Engaging Gifted Learners in Mixed-Ability Classrooms
DESCRIPTION:How can you challenge advanced and gifted learners without creating separate lessons or extra work? The answer lies in designing tasks that every student can enter\, yet naturally promote deeper thinking for those ready to go further.In this interactive session\, teachers will explore low-floor high-ceiling tasks\, open-ended learning experiences that allow every student access while providing opportunities for increasingly complex thinking. These tasks support all learners while naturally extending depth\, creativity\, and rigor for advanced students. Participants will examine practical examples and learn how to embed critical and creative thinking into everyday lessons across grade levels and content areas.

SUMMARY:Helping Gifted Learners Thrive
DESCRIPTION:Much of the conversation around gifted learners focuses on academic differentiation\, which is essential for students to grow and flourish. However\, supporting gifted students also requires an understanding of their affective development and the unique challenges they may experience. In this session\, educators will explore characteristics such as asynchronous development\, perfectionism\, boredom\, and heightened sensitivity. Participants will gain insight into how these traits may appear in the classroom and how they can influence learning\, motivation\, and behavior. Participants will leave with concrete tools to support gifted learners in ways that strengthen both their academic growth and overall well-being.

SUMMARY:The Modern Family Playbook
DESCRIPTION:Today’s families look different than they did even a decade ago. Teachers are partnering with single parents\, blended families\, grandparents\, guardians\, and caregivers who often juggle demanding schedules and competing responsibilities. The Modern Family Playbook focuses on practical strategies for building positive relationships with families\, strengthening communication\, and creating meaningful connections between home and school. When families feel valued and informed\, they are more likely to support classroom expectations\, reinforce learning at home\, and partner with teachers to ensure student success. In this training\, educators will explore ways to create parent buy-in\, strengthen student accountability\, and bridge the curriculum between school and home. Participants will leave with actionable tools to build trust with families\, communicate proactively\, and empower parents to be partners in their child’s education.

SUMMARY:Desmos World Tour: Hearing the Harmony in Every Equation
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to turn your math classroom up to eleven by ditching the "unplugged" life and plugging into the free Desmos Graphing Calculator Audio Trace features. In this high-energy session\, we’re moving beyond the textbook blues to explore how auditory feedback can transform your lessons into a sensory wall of sound that supports every learner in the arena. You’ll learn to shred through quadratic functions and interpret the gritty descent of a negative slope using your ears\, pairing visual data with a "math-rock" soundtrack that makes abstract concepts tangible. Close your eyes and lean into the rhythm as we channel our inner René Descartes to compose a mathematical symphony\, proving that when algebra meets the amplified stage\, the results are nothing short of legendary.

SUMMARY:The Math Trauma Patient: Restoring the Shut-Down Learner
DESCRIPTION:Listen up\, people! We've got a crisis on the floor\, and the patient is the student mind flatlining under the pressure of math anxiety. We’re seeing a total systemic failure of confidence\, and if we don’t identify the root causes now\, we’re going to lose them. This session is your crash course in emergency intervention. We’re going in deep\, using high-impact tools like “Which One Doesn’t Belong?” to jumpstart their natural curiosity and shock their mathematical thinking back to life. This isn't just a lesson—it's a rescue mission for every interventionist and teacher on the front lines. Grab your gear and get ready to trade self-doubt for a pulse of empowerment\, because we’re not letting another student slip away on our watch.&nbsp\;
