For the first time in a single resource, Kathy Richardson shares her insights into the mathematical development of preschool students.

WELCOME TO MATH PERSPECTIVES
TEACHER DEVELOPMENT CENTER

To be sure our students are ready to meet the challenges of the 21st century, classroom teachers have to know how children develop an understanding of the core concepts of mathematics and the essential ideas that are milestones or hurdles in the growth of understanding. Kathy Richardson has identified these stages of learning as Critical Learning Phases™.

It no longer makes sense for teachers to teach their students procedures for solving math problems without meaning and understanding.

Math Perspectives realizes the importance of the professional role of classroom teachers and we know teachers need continued support and professional development to meet the growing challenges of the profession to make sure children have a solid foundation and understanding of the mathematics they need to be successful in upper-level mathematics and have the intellectual advantages each and every student deserves.

We offer a number of institutes, workshops and classes for grades K-6 teachers of mathematics, math coaches, math coordinators, teacher leaders, professional developers, and other educators. We work closely with these educators to implement our proven strategies and assessments in their own classrooms and learning environments.
