AUSSIE

The goal is for students to achieve high 3s and 4s. This
presentation will demonstrate how through specific research, highly
effective classroom strategies have been created to better understand
how students are thinking and performing in Math. Through this workshop
participants will understand:

• what research says about math instruction and achievement;

• that “looking at student work” and assessments over time leads to
the scaffolding of writing strategies in the math classroom;

• learning methods and techniques that can positively impact on
a significant number of classrooms and students, specifically the
minority population.

Who should attend?
6-12 administrators, supervisors & team leaders

Diane “Di” Jackson, award winning staff developer,
has an approach to professional development is collaborative in style,
providing a learning environment for administrators that is supportive,
collaborative and developmental. This parallels the constructivist
learning environment she sees as vital in mathematics. Collaborative
learning and the use of technology and manipulatives are an integral
part of the student learning experience she promotes. You will
certainly enjoy her workshop style.

Frank Schoonderbeek brings alive the teaching of
Mathematics drawing on the students’ experiences, developing concepts
through investigations and manipulatives, with a focus on building long
term memory strategies for students. Having taught for over 25 years he
brings knowledge and a depth of expertise. Frank conducts proven
workshops that develop confidence in educators. His success in
conducting Professional Development programs for teachers in Australia
