| Often, there's simply not enough time during the regular school day to give students the learning opportunities they need to achieve success in mathematics. This session (which can be provided as a multi-day session or series of shorter workshops), shows afterschool program leaders and instructors how to boost student mathematics achievement through a variety of activities, including: - Playing engaging, educational mathematics "games;"
- Teaching mathematics through activities students enjoy, such as cooking, sports, or crafts;
- Working with hands-on mathematics tools and manipulatives;
- Developing and supporting student mathematics "talk;" and
- Encouraging mathematical problem solving.
