As educators, we are always looking for ways to increase the engagement of our students in their learning without having to always rely on paper/pencil activities. In this session, FLAME: Foundations Igniting Math Success Before the Lesson Begins, educators will explore how the FLAME Warm-Up Framework transforms daily math instruction through systematic, explicit, and engaging routines that build stronger number sense, mathematical confidence, and critical thinking skills. This presentation will allow educators to focus on whole-group spiral review activities while increasing student engagement and overall math achievement. If you want a fun and exciting way to get your students engaged before teaching the math content, then this session is for you. FLAME is the UFLI for math!
