AVMR Summer Virtual Training Opportunities

This summer, there will be an opportunity to receive training in AVMR Course 1 or AVMR Course 2 virtually.  The training will be spread out over two weeks including asynchronous learning and team meetings.  We will meet for three hours (8:00 - 11:00) on eight separate days (July 27, 28, 29, 30, August 3, 4, 5, and 6) 

Add+VantageMR® give teachers tools and assessments to use with students in order to identify their current understandings of number concepts and then provides activities to help support data-driven instruction. It is one of those professional development opportunities that changes how you look at students mathematically and how you can better meet their needs.

AVMR Course 1 involves teachers learning about Math Recovery® assessments and focusing on a continuum of learning in relationship to the Learning Framework in Number. Teachers learn to use a series of three assessments to develop a profile of number knowledge for children: number words and numerals, structuring, and addition and subtraction. The profile then assists teachers in making informed instructional decisions to advance students' knowledge and skills. (Recommended for Kindergarten on up)

AVMR Course 2 is a continuation of the numeracy continuum of learning in regards to the Learning Framework in Number. You will learn about place value and multiplication/division assessments that can be administered to your neediest students to know exactly where they are in their numeracy development so you can make instructional decisions that will help to move the students along in their learning. (Recommended for first grade on up)

If you are interested in participating, please fill out the Google Form and indicate which course you would like to join. You NEED TO take course 1 before attending course 2 and must attend all of the dates/times for each particular course.
