Get ready to blast off with JiJi!
As the new school year begins, all the fun and excitement of summer vacation becomes a distant memory—and something to look forward to once again. But why does summer get to have all the fun? Let JiJi help you bring energy and excitement back into the classroom!
Here at MIND Research Institute, we know how important it is to engage students and capture their interest so they can thrive in a learning environment, especially when it comes to math.
In a recent webinar, Nigel Nisbet and Ki Karou explored the science of math and the importance of accelerated learning. They discussed the perception-action cycle and the role it plays in how the brain learns and builds deep conceptual understanding.
Hosting an ST Math Launch Day for your district, school, or class would be a great way to remind us all how learning math the ST Math way can be both fun and rewarding. Check out this ST Math Launch Day toolkit for a timeline, tips, and resources on how to hold an ST Math Launch Day celebration!
If you’re already in the middle of planning your launch day, we’ve got some good reminders for you in the video below.
Nothing encourages learning more than creative problem solving, building on schemas, and reinforcing productive struggle and math rigor. The best part is that we have a fun challenge for you!
As students settle into their classrooms, ready for a new year filled with learning through ST Math, we want you to showcase your ST Math Launch Day for everyone to see. Show us how your school celebrates blasting off with JiJi! Keep reading for information on how to enter the first official ST Math Launch Day Back-to-School Challenge.
