Strengthening Discourse, Understanding, & Belonging with Math Language Routines

Monday July 13, 2026 1:05pm - 2:25pm PDT

Mathematical discourse is about more than talking. It is about creating opportunities for students to reason, make sense of problems, and feel that they belong in the work of mathematics. In this session, participants will explore how Math Language Routines (MLRs) support meaningful discourse and interaction while strengthening mathematical understanding. Whether you are new to MLRs or already using them, you will leave with practical strategies for implementing these routines across grades and in a variety of instructional contexts.

Linguistically Responsive Assessment Practices in K–12 Mathematics

Monday July 13, 2026 2:40pm - 4:00pm PDT

Florentine G

All children, including multilinguals, have mathematical strengths that we want to uncover, but traditional assessment does not always fully capture these understandings. Let’s reimagine assessment! Together, we’ll learn how formative and summative assessments can be used creatively and multimodally with linguistically diverse students to provide us with better data and next steps. We’ll also discuss specific ways to involve & leverage families in the assessment and intervention process.

Beyond Translation: Strategic Use of Home Language to Support Newcomer & Multilingual Learners

Tuesday July 14, 2026 9:00am - 10:20am PDT

Florentine D

Translating materials is often a go-to strategy for supporting newcomers or multilingual learners. While translations can be effective at certain times, multilinguals need opportunities to engage with English content to develop language alongside new learning. In this session, we’ll explore cross-linguistic strategies that allow children to use both their home languages and English while reading, writing, and talking about math.

Creating a Humanizing Mathematics Classroom

Tuesday July 14, 2026 9:00am - 10:20am PDT

Florentine E

A humanizing classroom creates space for students to see themselves in the learning, bring their lived experiences into the work, and engage in ways that feel meaningful and affirming. Together, we’ll consider what it takes to build classrooms that center identity, belonging, and deep engagement. Teachers, coaches, and leaders will come away with practical ideas for creating learning experiences where students feel seen, valued, and ready to learn.

Mathematics, Language, & The Bilingual Brain

Tuesday July 14, 2026 1:00pm - 2:20pm PDT

Florentine G

In mathematics education, myths about multilingual learners often shape the way teaching and learning are structured. In this session, participants will explore the science behind the bilingual brain and consider what it reveals about how multilingual students truly learn math. Educators will examine common misconceptions, connect research to instructional practice, and reflect on how a neuro-based, strengths-based lens can support more responsive and affirming math instruction for multilingual learners.
