In this session, we’ll look at how to move students past basic button-pushing. We will start with tough standardized testing problems that Desmos handles in seconds. Then, we’ll dive into practical, year-round strategies. The goal is to remove arithmetic barriers so we can focus on deeper analysis.
This session explores the power of intentional spiral review as a key strategy for improving student retention and confidence. Participants will examine how to move beyond routine skill practice to strengthen number sense, fluency, and problem-solving through spaced practice and retrieval. Attendees will leave with practical strategies, examples, and resources to implement meaningful spiral review in their classrooms immediately.
