What is enrichment? Why, When, Where and How it should and could be done.
This introductory session is designed for High School and Middle School teachers whether new or experienced. We will address how “enrichment” may be regularly implemented in the ordinary classroom, as well as how it may be employed to build and support Math Clubs and Math Teams.
Material will be drawn from both the Elementary School and Secondary School curricula, including Algebra, Geometry, and Number Theory, and will feature specific illustrative examples, special topics, and suggested techniques. Problem posing in addition to problem solving is strongly emphasized. This session will be strong on content.
This session will include lunch.
