2023 Pennsylvania Department of Education (In-Person) Conference
63. What Counts in Teaching and Learning for ALL Young Children?
Session Dates
Friday March 03, 2023 9:45 AM - 10:45 AM - Hershey Lodge and Convention Center
Closed
To realize the surprising capability of young children, including children with disabilities, to learn math, research suggests using Learning Trajectories. Learning trajectories have been placed at the core of some standards, curricula, and approaches to teaching. We will introduce why learning trajectories are so important, especially for appropriate teaching for children with disabilities, and then do a “deep dive” into a learning trajectory for one topic. In so doing, we will also feature how daily activities and routines can be used to promote mathematical understanding and introduce a new, powerful resource: Based on 20 years of research, the Learning and Teaching with Learning Trajectories (LTLT or [LT]2 ) tool helps trainers, teachers, and families to promote high-quality teaching and learning and equity.
Target Audience
General education and special education administrators and teachers, paraprofessionals, school psychologists, professional development staff, and families of students with disabilities are encouraged to attend.
Reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate individuals who have special needs as addressed by the Americans with Disabilities Act and who need assistance at this event. Contact: Debra Jordan at (610) 878-7224 or
