From Frustration to Fun: Re-Engaging Students in Math
Date & Time: Wednesday, October 8th at 2 p.m. ET
Too often, math is a source of frustration—leading students to disengage and lose confidence. But when math becomes enjoyable, it can transform how students learn and perform.
In this webinar, district administrators and a Prodigy Lead Teacher will share how they've successfully re-engaged students who once struggled with math. Join us to discover how districts are moving math from a subject students dread into one they love—and how you can replicate their success.
Attendees who join the live event will be able to participate in a ThoughtExchange workshop to share and rank the best practices from their peers on how to change the mindset of students who disengage from math.*
