This interactive session invites mathematics instructional leaders, including instructional coaches, administrators, and faculty working with pre-service teachers, to explore tools that support implementing NC Mathematics Standards through High-Quality Equitable Mathematics Instruction (HQEMI). Participants will engage with Empathy Plays from the toolkit, gaining insights into using empathy-focused tools effectively with pre-service and in-service teachers. The toolkit also includes resources on mathematical mindsets and HQEMI characteristics, offering flexible strategies to meet diverse school and district needs. Attendees will explore an online hub of resources, learning practical methods for integration with an emphasis on supporting historically minoritized students. Bring a laptop for this hands-on experience. Participants will leave with actionable strategies to empower teachers and create equitable, inclusive classrooms where every student can thrive. Join us in transforming mathematics instruction to benefit all learners!
