The Wisconsin Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (WI-AMTE) and the Wisconsin Mathematics Council (WMC) is pleased to announce our fall book study. This October, join us for five hour-long interactive online professional development sessions focused on the new 5 Practices book!

Describe and unpack the 5 Practices
View and discuss brand new classroom video of teachers using the 5 Practices model in their classrooms
NEW! Unpack challenges teachers face in implementing each of the 5 Practices, and ways to overcome those challenges

Two books in the new 5 Practices series will be available this fall, for the elementary and middle grades. Select materials from the forthcoming high school volume will be made available exclusively to our book study participants!

Join us for five action-packed meetings, from 4-5pm Central time:
