ABSTRACT
Math Workshop is about a group of children learning and working together throughout the year in a structured instructional format that has multiple spaces for individual, partner, and small-group work. Students collaborate and learn about math in a space that is invigorating, rigorous, and standards based. They look forward to working on projects, playing games, and spending quality time with their teacher. Math Workshop is meant to be part of what memories are made of. So how do you create such a space? Day by day, week by week, throughout the year, your goal is to develop students’ “productive mathematical behaviors, model mathematical thinking and foster a productive disposition” (Hunter & Anthony, 2011).
