Flexibility Formula Pillars featured in this session:

Understanding

It is very hard to shift your teaching FROM a teacher-focused lesson, with you doing all the instruction and kids just listening TO more of a student-centered lesson where kids think, discuss, debate, & wonder while you facilitate the mathematical learning. 

That’s where the pillars of The Flexibility Formula come in. By focusing on The Flexibility Formula pillars you will help kids build their math minds and not just create calculators, by seeing math as something that can’t be taught….it’s caught.

All the speakers in the summit are here to help you as you shift your teaching. Each speaker addresses at least one of The Flexibility Formula pillars. The pillars are explained in more detail in your Summit Workbook.

About Sue Looney

As a new teacher, Dr. Sue Looney became aware that her fifth grade students had significant gaps in understanding mathematics. This began her journey to understand how children learn mathematics. Inspired by the work of author Jonathon Kozol (Savage Inequalities, 1991) she became particularly interested in our most vulnerable and under-represented populations, supporting the teachers that day in and day out serve these students with compassion, enthusiasm, and kindness.

This learning journey has taken Sue to amazing places: from the elementary classroom, to writing materials for preschool students, to obtaining her doctorate and teaching pre-service teachers at Boston University, to speaking at conferences from coast to coast in the United States, to writing two children’s books, and to volunteering in the Galapagos Islands! She has been fortunate for these experiences and to have met incredible educators along the way who have been willing to teach and inspire her. She is still curious, still learning, and has a deep respect for all educators.
