Rich tasks can deepen student understanding, promote critical thinking, and encourage meaningful engagement without sacrificing rigour. In this hands-on workshop, teachers will explore classroom-ready examples that help students reason, justify, and reflect on their learning. We’ll look at how rich tasks can be used in everyday instruction, as well as how tasks that develop the C1 competency can help students prepare for summative C2 assessments. Participants will also have time to work directly with selected examples and consider how they could be adapted for their own classrooms. We’ll also explore practical strategies for creating rich tasks using existing materials, helping reduce prep time without compromising quality. Whether you’re new to rich tasks or looking to expand your toolkit, this session offers concrete steps for making critical thinking a natural part of your math classroom.

Are your students doing the intellectual heavy lifting in your classroom? In this workshop on "Building Ratio" we will explore how to successfully shift the cognitive work—the thinking, writing, analyzing, and talking—from the teacher to the students.

You will walk away with a practical, easy-to-implement toolkit of engaging techniques designed to multiply the number of voices in your room and push your students to think harder.

Join us to learn how to step back, boost the ratio, and make every student an active, focused participant in their own learning!
