The Conceptual Building Blocks is a series of three modules designed to build a teacher’s capacity to work with students in various settings.  The approach is rooted in a concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) methodology of teaching and develops conceptual understanding along the way to procedural understanding.  The areas of focus for the three modules are Addition/Subtraction, Multiplication/Division, and Fractions.  The objectives are:

1. 1.      To build teacher knowledge around the building blocks of numeracy
2. 2.      To provide strategies for teaching content and differentiating instruction
3. 3.      To develop a conceptual understanding of the core components of number and operations
4. 4.      To catalyze change within the school through coaching sessions
