math game series
JOIN OUR FREE MATH GAME WORKSHOPS!
All Learners Network (ALN) is committed to improving math pedagogy so that all students can access quality math instruction. We do this through our online platform, free resources, events, and embedded professional development.
And - we really love math games. Math games are a powerful tool in the math classroom. They allow students time and space to practice math and truly learn in a relaxed state. Math games provide incredible opportunities for students to talk about math - while also allowing educators to gain valuable insights into their students’ mathematical understandings.
This is why we have put together a series of FREE math game workshops for the month of December. Take a look at the below workshops and register for one or more of them!
Workshop attendees will:
- Examine why games need to be a critical part of math learning
- Explore a few games from each session's content strand nd how they relate to specific High Leverage Concepts (HLCs)
- Review extensions and variations for selected games to understand the long shelf life of each of the games
- Address questions from the group about math games

High Leverage Concepts Resources
The High Leverage Concepts (HLCs) serve as a road map to ensure that all students meet the most fundamental concepts to move on to the next grade. The HLC Learning Progressions identify the developing stages along a continuum of concepts, models, and skills that lead to student understanding and applying a specific HLC. The High Leverage Assessments (HLAs) assess a student's current understanding of a specific HLC.

ALN Lesson Structure
The ALN Lesson Structure is a teaching framework so everyone can learn math with conceptual understanding. Through the use of an inclusive Main Lesson and a differentiated math Menu, we create a context for learning that can support success for a broad range of learners. The framework includes four elements: Launch, Main Lesson, Menu, and Closure. To access information about the ALN Lesson Structure, click below to access the resources.
