Is “playful” the first word that comes to mind for you when you think of mathematics? Many of us experienced math as the opposite of playful, but in reality there is a vital connection between play and math learning. This session will provide an overview of the Math Anywhere! strategies for inviting math thinking and talk into everyday situations and creating optimal conditions for mathematical play. We will have a little fun trying these ideas out ourselves and explore resources to share with families. This workshop is designed with teachers of early learners and child care providers in mind.

This online course is part of a series of five Math Anywhere! courses. Course sessions can be taken in any order and at any time. Clock Hours or STARS credits are available (3 hours) upon completion of this course session.
