Welcome to the Sched site for the Northwest Mathematics Conference!

ALL WORKSHOPS ARE FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED - signing up in Sched does not guarantee you a spot in a session. However, planning your day in Sched really helps us anticipate any potential need to make room changes.

If you create a free account, you can plan and edit your schedule. You may wish to select more than one session in a timeslot as a backup, in case your first choice of session is full.

On the right side of the schedule you can filter by grade band. This will include the sessions which span more than one grade band. You may also wish to view the Schedule as Expanded.

Algebra Made Easy With Bar Models
Friday October 25, 2024 1:35pm - 2:50pm PDT
Macdonald D, Fairmont
Come on an algebraic journey as we see how bar models can be used to develop algebraic thinking from grade 4 to grade 9. We will solve puzzles, solve and make sense of 1- and 2-step equations and more complex equations, have a more intuitive understanding of the "rules" of algebra, and tackle tough word problems traditionally done with algebraic equations--all using bar models! If your students struggle to "get" algebra, then this session is for you! This is a hands-on session. Paper and pencils will be provided.
