Title: Charting the Path in Early Number, Counting, and Place Value for Effective Learning
Session Description: In the crucial early years of mathematics education, moving students' thinking through a mathematical progression is essential. Establishing a strong foundation in number sense, counting, and place value is paramount as students embark on this journey. This session is designed to empower educators with the knowledge and strategies to guide young learners, helping them advance purposefully along a mathematical progression.

I’m Graham Fletcher. Over the last 20 years, I've had the amazing opportunity to serve as a classroom teacher, a math instructional coach, and a district coordinator. This has allowed me to really dive in and understand the progression of mathematics in our elementary classrooms.
Throughout my journey, I have openly shared my ideas and resources on my website, www.gfletchy.com. It's in that space that I've shared 3-act tasks that engage students and progression videos that empower teachers.
Having supported thousands of teachers over the years, I've realized that we shouldn't have to walk this journey alone.
I'm a firm believer that all of us are smarter than one of us.
