About this event
This workshop is designed for teachers who want to deepen their understanding of the concrete–representational–abstract (CRA) progression in grades 3-5, and explore practical ways to make elementary school mathematics more concrete, accessible, and engaging for students.
Objectives
- Understand the CRA Framework: Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the concrete–representational–abstract progression and its role in fostering conceptual understanding in elementary school mathematics.
- Integrate Manipulatives and Visuals: Teachers will identify and utilize appropriate concrete tools (counters, rekenreks, base ten blocks, etc.) and representational aids (e.g., diagrams, models) to facilitate the transition to abstract thinking.
- Collaborate and Share Best Practices: Participants will engage in collaborative activities to share and refine CRA-based lesson ideas and resources for elementary school math instruction.
