Math TasksThe final session of the Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom K–5 learning series was held on January 14, 2026, at the District Education Support Centre. Educators explored math tasks inspired by Peter Liljedahl and Maegan Giroux’s new K–5 resource, deepening their understanding of Building Thinking Classrooms practices. Participants reflected on classroom implementation, shared successes, and discussed strategies to further support student thinking, collaboration, and problem‑solving.

This learning session supports SD83’s Strategic Plan by strengthening numeracy instruction (Intellectual Development) and engaging all learners through innovative and responsive learning opportunities.

Thank you to Christine Blacklock and Marlee Penner, District Numeracy Helping Teachers, for facilitating the series.
