Room C - 9th Grade Academy

**Note: AMSTI Math Foundations Training (K-5 or 6-12) is a REQUIRED prerequisite to be able to attend and participate in this course.

This one-day session focuses on identifying, analyzing, composing, and decomposing
shapes and laying the foundation for early fractional reasoning in K-2. Participants will
learn that geometry in K-2 is much more than identifying shapes as they explore the
learning progressions related to geometric reasoning, discover the power of purposeful
geometry experiences in the classroom, discuss strategies to incorporate geometry
into the full academic year, and analyze evidence of students understanding to inform
planning of next instructional steps.
