Improving Mathematical Problem solving, Agency, & student-Centered instruction for K-8 Teachers and Students (IMPACTS K-8)

The IMPACTS Program focuses on developing teacher confidence and capability with K-8 mathematics, while also supporting opportunities for teacher leadership.

See program details, workshops, and events below.

The IMPACTS K-8 Program caters to teachers seeking to bring about the greatest change in students' mathematical experiences and improve student outcomes in mathematics. This includes classroom teachers, special education teachers, long term substitute teachers, coaches/interventionists, and others directly serving math learners.

IMPACTS Program Goals:

  • Improve teachers' professional agency and confidence with conceptual mathematics instruction
  • Improve students' mathematical agency and confidence
  • Increase the use of student-centered instructional strategies

The program consists of 5 components:

  • Teacher Workshops on Saturdays throughout the school year
  • Summer Mathematics Institutes for Teacher Teams engaged in site-based leadership
  • Site-based support for Teacher Teams by CRR staff
  • Teacher Leadership Retreat for teachers engaged in regional/district leadership
  • Mathematics Educator Appreciation Day Conference (MEAD)

During the school year, the CRR will offer workshops open to ALL Arizona teachers (see workshop descriptions below). These workshops introduce teachers to the big ideas of mathematics in grades K-5 and 6-8.

During the summer, the CRR will offer week-long institutes for teachers to who demonstrate productive mathematics dispositions, commitment to their schools, and the capacity to become school site mathematics facilitators. See Program Agreements for more details.

Information about the school year workshops will be advertised through the CRR listserv, so please make sure you are on the list.

For more information about the IMPACTS program or to form a Teacher Team, please contact Melissa Hosten (mhosten@math.arizona.edu) for K-5 or Rodrigo Gutiérrez (rodrigog@math.arizona.edu) for 6-8.

Previous IMPACTS Events

How can students discover attributes and structures through exploration? Come experience the world of geometry in a new way. Look at figures and shapes in new ways, and discover new relationships. Participants will experience investigations designed to support K-2 students' discovery and conceptualization of geometric attributes and structures, including the early conceptualization of fractions. Participants will explore the optimal progression for learning big ideas of geometry. Geometry is an area with significant misconceptions, come and uncover these.

Presenters: Carrie Burdon and Leigh Diebold
Date: Saturday, April 1st, 2023

REGISTRATION

Geometry is the attempt to understand space, shape, and dimension. Within mathematics, geometry has been a source of great insight into other mathematical domains, such as algebra. Geometry enables students to represent and make sense of the world, analyze and solve problems, and represent abstract symbols pictorially to facilitate understanding. However, students are often asked to memorize geometric properties and formulas rather than to explore the underlying concepts through worthwhile tasks that involve hands-on experiences. 

Come join us as we explore the expectations for middle grades geometry, the progression of geometric thought through the van Hiele levels, and how to tailor instruction to provide the appropriate experiences for students to develop through the phases of learning.

**This workshop is designed to help teachers with previous experience with IMPACTS-MS workshops to dive deeper into their instruction, but it is open to ALL.**

    June 13-17, 2022 IMPACTS Elementary Summer Institute (Grades K-5)

    The IMPACTS Program is made possible by the generosity of the Thomas R. Brown Family Foundation. The Thomas R. Brown Foundations are a legacy of Thomas R. Brown, and the company he built in Tucson, Arizona, Burr-Brown Corporation.

    CRR and the many teachers served by the IMPACTS Program are very grateful for the investment made by the Thomas R. Brown Family Foundation.

    Please Note: Teachers from out of Arizona may attend workshops, but they will incur a fee related to the number of hours for the workshop.
