We will keep this digital program active from DL2019 for attendees to find contacts, look at posted materials for sessions, and look back at offerings.
We hope to see you at DL2020, March 25 - 27!

Though we know mathematics content learning and language learning happen together, we don’t always know how to leverage the language students produce as a resource for all students. In this workshop, we explore routines for generating and using student language in collaborative sense-making during mathematics activities. We will focus on routines designed to give students a purpose in attending to -- and making use of -- the language and ideas of their peers. The routines are grounded in four design principles for mathematics curriculum developed by SCALE and Understanding Language at Stanford University in collaboration with Illustrative Mathematics, and extended by Envision Learning Partners. You will have an opportunity to adapt a math task -- or an interdisciplinary task -- to try with your own students; if this sounds like fun, bring a task to share with colleagues and we'll adapt it together.
