Mathematical concepts and processes needed for effective and conceptually-rich classroom teaching are examined. The course includes a focus on modelling, reasoning, and mental calculations as needed to support problem-based learning in all five strands of the Mathematics curriculum to Grade 7. Standard and non-standard algorithms will be developed via inquiry, modelling, and sense-making.
