Getting Ahead of the Holiday Slide

As the holiday season approaches, it can be challenging to maintain students’ focus on their academic responsibilities, especially when it comes to math. Before the holiday hiatus, stock up on effective instructional strategies to keep students engaged from fall through to the New Year. We’ll explore a variety of activities tailored to sustain interest and excitement in math despite the seasonal distractions. Additionally, we’ll provide valuable resources for parents and caregivers that you can share to support their children’s learning during the holiday break.

After this session, you’ll be able to: 

• Implement instructional strategies for keeping students engaged during fall to New Year distractions.
• Learn and practice hands-on activity examples that are both educational and fun.
• Access a curated list of resources for parents and caregivers to use during the holiday break to reinforce math skills.

Audience: This session is suitable for all educators, and participation does not necessitate prior familiarity with the TouchMath program.
