Implementing the Five Practices with Desmos

Let’s look at how technology can support each of the five practices, from anticipating, all the way through connecting your students’ work with the learning goals. Whether you can name all five practices backwards in your sleep or have never heard of them, we will have something to learn together. You will experience them as a student and then we will dive into all of the techniques that can make the five practices come life.
