Building Mathematical Fluency
This one-day professional learning session is designed to deepen your pedagogical content knowledge within the context of the Alberta Mathematics Curriculum. We will deconstruct the lesson structure, exploring the research-informed principles that move students beyond rote memorization toward deep, relational understanding.

This course empowers classroom teachers and math leads to implement a high-impact, CPA (Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract) approach that aligns with provincial standards for numeracy and problem-solving.
