EUREKA MATH INSTITUTE SESSION DESCRIPTIONS
Module Study Sessions
This session, offered by grade level, interactively engages
participants in the structure and mathematics of a module.
Participants closely examine the most essential lessons of
a specified module, gaining deeper understanding and skill
with both the math and pedagogy of the module.
Focus on Fluency
This session empowers educators to understand, deliver, and
customize fluency exercises within Eureka Math. The session
includes interactive demonstration, analysis of teaching
sequences, deliberate practice, and the customization and
crafting of fluency sequences to meet student needs. The
session also illustrates the coherence of the Eureka curriculum
experience and the progression of fluency across the grades.
Solving Word Problems with Math Drawings and the
Tape Diagram
Participants learn how to model using the tape diagram in multistep problems and practice its delivery of instruction. The
session includes plenty of practice with problem solving
involving whole number, measurement, and fractional units;
analysis of problem situations; writing problems from tape
diagrams; practice of delivery of instruction; and analysis of
classroom footage and student work.
Preparation and Customization of Eureka Math Lessons
This session empowers educators to customize and
deliver the lessons of Eureka Math, fine tuning them to meet
the needs of their students through a step-by-step process.
By analysis of the lesson’s underlying structure, teachers gain
insight into decision making necessary to break down
problems for strugglers and extend problems for those ready
for a challenge.
