About this event

Come join our seminar connected to the Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Course Series*, centered on Stride 1 of the Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction toolkit. This will be an opportunity to learn from and connect with educators from around the country! In this seminar, we will dig into the antiracist math educator characteristic of “embracing and encouraging multiple and varying ways of sharing, showing, and communicating knowledge” in math classrooms through a focus on engaging students in collectivism and community-based learning environments. You will have the chance to hear how Mathematical Language Routines (MLRs) can be used to foster a collectivist structure in the classroom. Participants will even get to practice using an MLR! In grade-alike groups, participants will be given time to discuss building community-based learning environments in their classrooms.

Participants will receive a certificate indicating 1.25-hours of professional learning.

*Note: It is not a prerequisite for seminar participants to have taken one of the Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction Courses; this seminar is open to all interested educators!

Student Achievement Partners

We design for the students whose potential is not currently being realized within the American public education system, specifically Black students and students who are English learners. We believe challenging K-12 academic standards, in the context of culturally relevant teaching and equitable classroom practice, are non-negotiable when it comes to improving student outcomes. We believe that effective leadership and instruction persistently takes action to eradicate racist systems and policies so that all students can thrive academically.

In partnership with other passionate change-makers, we design tools and resources, professional learning, and other supports, grounded in research and the reality of the classroom. Student Achievement Partners regularly engages content experts, policy makers, partner organizations, and practitioners to reimagine just, equitable, and excellent instruction at grade level. We develop practical tools and resources to help teachers plan for and implement equitable instruction. We partner with anyone committed to bold, substantial efforts to rethink how we teach and students learn.
