GBSuper informational! Excellent, easy ways to increase engagement in math classrooms along with some pertinent research that has been done on math anxiety causes and work-arounds. I wish it was longer!

GBI love the Courage to Risk conference I love the Courage to Risk conference! So much good stuff! The only 'complaint' I have is some sessions are more for teachers who are just getting into trauma-informed schools, and don't get into real applications. This session was ALL about concrete tools and applications we can immediately use in the classroom! Thank you so much for the great ideas to make math more accessible for all, and getting ALL students involved in every class! Great job! Best session of the weekend!

CAI binged the workshop over a weekend… I binged the workshop over a weekend and got to work on implementing it with my class for an end-of-year review activity over 3 days. I plan on using this in my classes when we return in September. It will be a great tool to keep things fresh and improve accountability with my grade 10 and 11 students. After just using this strategy for those 3 lessons, I already noticed students were not on their phones AND some of the kids that I NEVER heard participate, actually gave answers when cold-called upon. It was fantastic! Money well spent!

GBExcellent all of the way around!! Sessions were always started and ended on time. Sessions were packed with hands-on activities, modeling, and specific and immediatly-applicable tools, strategies, and pedagogy. Excellent all of the way around!!
