Join us for a grade level/course focused professional development provided by Amplify Desmos Math. The goal is to help teachers integrate these innovative tools into their daily instruction for better student learning outcomes. By exploring features and tools of the platform, teachers will learn to key components for the materials that lead to engaging learning experiences. These lessons have a plethora of resources and can be tailored to meet diverse student needs. Participants are encouraged to bring their devices for hands-on activities, promoting active participation and application of knowledge. Ultimately, the session aims to empower teachers to transform math instruction, fostering a dynamic classroom environment that encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and academic success.
