The Center for Mathematics and Science Education’s Middle Math Institutes are designed to engage educators in dissecting, understanding, and making connections to the mathematics content taught in grades 6-8. Participants will gain conceptual understanding of the mathematics across all domains taught in the middle grades, learn to make connections to students’ previously learned mathematics skills, and explore strategies to effectively engage students in the mathematics learning process.
Each content institute is offered through online and in-person learning options. Participate in any institute to increase your content knowledge in that area or complete all four to earn the Middle Level Mathematics supplemental endorsement.
