Saturday Math-Bridging Fractions and Decimals

Welcome to Saturday Math, a professional learning community where teachers, administrators, curriculum enthusiasts, and other education colleagues come together to do, learn, and talk about mathematics. Designed for K–12 educators, this four-session program meets across the school year to support deep engagement with math and reflective conversations about the work of teaching.

Each facilitated session includes one or two rich mathematical tasks and structured discussions about our practice as math educators. Topics may focus on content (e.g., Connecting Fractions, Decimals, and Percents) or pedagogy (e.g., Using Mathematical Routines), always with an emphasis on making connections to your unique role—whether you’re a teacher, coach, administrator, or another education professional.
