First Steps in Mathematics
Professional Development Courses

Based on cutting-edge research, First Steps in Mathematics develops and expands teachers’ understanding of mathematics and how children learn mathematics. First Steps in Mathematics enables teachers to successfully diagnose, plan, implement, and evaluate their students’ learning experiences in four strands - Number, Measurement, Space, and Chance and Data. Diagnostic Tasks and Diagnostic Maps within each strand help teachers to identify students’ misconceptions about mathematics. Sample lessons and learning activities provide teachers with practical and simple ideas to support students’ development.

Teachers, schools, and districts can access a range of comprehensive and highly practical professional development courses based on the First Steps in Mathematics teacher resource books. All courses are designed to enhance teacher practice and improve student outcomes in mathematics.

Each course is specifically crafted to help participants take on the various roles of PRESENTER, SUPPORTER or USER as they implement First Steps in Mathematics.
