Invitation to a webinar - New elementary math curriculum
Recently the Ministry of Education has launched Ontario’s new math curriculum for Grades 1-8. The math curriculum is part of province new four-year math strategy that will ensure that students are prepared for success in the classroom and in their future, that teachers are confident and capable in teaching math, and that parents and families can support their kids.
The ministry is pleased to extend the invitation to a webinar to support the implementation of the new elementary math curriculum to Teacher Candidates. This webinar will provide an overview of the new elementary math curriculum (grades 1-8), including key changes in each curriculum stand and highlight available teaching supports.
We believe Teacher Candidates will find these learning opportunities useful as they prepare for their practicum and for the Math Proficiency Test.
This webinar is repeated several times.
Teacher Candidates are invited to register for one date and time that works best with their schedule.
- Friday, August 28, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 am
- Monday, August 31, 2020 1:00 - 2:00 pm
- Tuesday, September 1, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 am
- Wednesday, September 2, 2020 4:00 - 5:00 pm
Teacher candidates must register for this session using their faculty of education issued email address.
