Make Math Moments

District Improvement Program

Empower Your Educators With A Math Improvement Program that Engages, Builds Confidence, and Creates Lasting Change with Educators & Students.

Step 1: Book a Free Call

Book a free discovery call with our District Improvement Team to see if your school, district or organization are a good fit for the program.

Step 2: Develop Your Plan

Begin developing a clear, concise mathematics improvement plan focused on strengthening the six (6) parts of an effective mathematics program.

Your team can begin the process here.

 

Step 3: Meet Your Objectives

Observe the progress across your organization through the monitoring and measuring of the key results we co-constructed during the planning process to ensure you meet your district improvement priorities and objectives.

What we're hearing from districts across North America:

|

We're seeing pockets of success around our organization, but struggling to bring sustainable, lasting systemic change.

|

We did a lot of work in mathematics, but we aren't seeing the results we had hoped for and student achievement has NOT changed.

|

We feel like we have many of the necessary pieces, but we aren't clear on how to put them together to form an effective math program.

|

We're producing too many 'answer-getters' and not enough adaptive reasoners and problem solvers.

If these statements sound like they came from your school or district then book a call with us and we'll guide you on how to clarify measurable goals that drive student acheivement.

How many days are you willing to lose?

There are only 180 days in a typical school year, so of course time is valuable. If your organization is not taking steps to craft and align specific goals now, then it is likely that next year at this time you’ll be still wondering how you’re going to make the changes and shifts you need to make to improve your mathematics program.

Swap Confusion For Clarity & Alignment

Without a clear, concise and well-communicated mathematics vision and a sustainable professional development plan rooted in relevant, attainable, research-based and measurable goals, your teachers will continue to work on disconnected pieces of effective mathematics instruction that can only lead to pockets of success instead of systemic change in mathematics teaching practice and student achievement.

How We’ve Helped Districts Just Like Yours

“The difference is night and day”

“With the guidance from the Make Math Moments District Improvement Program this is the first year we’ve had a clear, connected, impactful professional development plan where our teachers see a pathway to an improved math classroom.”

West Carrollton School District, Ohio

“Working with Jon and Kyle has given us a different perspective by challenging our thinking. They encourage us to take action steps based on our conversations and then follow up with us on those actions. Being math leaders is a lonely job and they validate the work that we are doing as well as coach us into better leaders.”

Katy Independent School District, Texas

“The coaching conversations with Jon and Kyle have really helped push us to keep momentum on our focus and how we can make the changes we need to in math instruction in our District. The questioning from Jon and Kyle are all instrumental in really giving us the tools and ideas we need to drive the work.”

Galloway Township Public Schools, New Jersey

Kyle and Jon have established themselves as a go-to pair for thoughtful and interesting math lessons.

Their attention to the critical nature of building curiosity and the importance of thoughtful planning resonate with me. It is great that they have provided so many examples and a structure in which to create lessons.

Marian Small

Author and International Professional Development Consultant

I strongly encourage all educators who teach mathematics at some point in their timetable to consider participating in this engaging professional development experience to move your practice to the next level.

Peter Liljedahl

Author: The Thinking Classroom , Professor, Faculty of Education Simon Fraser University

Kyle and Jon are on a mission to change how students experience math by ditching those forgettable “I do, we do, you do” lessons and crafting moments that students will remember.

Curious students WANT to learn and are EAGER to tackle that next challenging problem. Let Kyle and Jon show you how to spark curiosity on a daily basis.

Their three step framework can help any teacher make small changes that result in big wins!
