IMPACTS Middle School (6-8) Summer Institute

June 1, 2026

Participants take a deep dive into the story told by mathematics content in the middle grades. From fractions to functions, teachers develop an understanding of how the content connects across grades and how students develop both conceptual understanding and procedural skills. Participants learn how to integrate instructional routines and manipulatives regularly in their classroom to help students see the big ideas and essential understandings of proportional reasoning and algebraic thinking.

  • Earn $250 and 40 hours of professional development credit for recertification.
  • Summer institute will be HYBRID with in-person and online participants.
  • Participants receive support throughout the school year as they experiment with instructional shifts and engage colleagues in professional conversations.
