About this event

Dr. Christine Suurtamm’s insights will surely provide valuable perspectives on how children learn mathematics and practical ways families can support their learning. This session will  focus on Kinder to Grade 6 learning, as those early years are so crucial for building a strong mathematical foundation. We will particularly focus on how spatial reasoning is connected to all of the strands of mathematics, even number sense and early algebra and share ways that you can support your students to develop these important concepts
