About Making Math Real Courses
It’s about the TEACHING, not the program. You, the educator, are the key to the student’s success. The Making Math Real course series for parents and educators provides simplified, comprehensive foundations for a practical, systematic, and multisensory, structured program in mathematics, kindergarten through calculus, that is aligned with the California State standards.  CLICK HERE TO VIEW RECOMMENDED COURSE SEQUENCES GUIDE
Making Math Real: Overview
The Overview will provide the pedagogical foundations and practical applications of implementing and maintaining a comprehensive and fully structured multisensory, manipulatives-based methodology in mathematics for pre-K through calculus.  Come and learn how and why this multisensory structured approach is powerful, successful, unique, and entirely different from the way math has been traditionally taught.
The 9 Lines Intensive
This NEW essential course for parents and educators is a comprehensive, in-depth investigation that shows how to maximize the success of the 9 Lines strategy and to integrate it into the daily classroom or home experience.
Making Math Real: The 4 Operations and the 400 Math Facts
This course provides the essential foundation upon which all mathematics will develop: the 4 operations and the 400 math facts.  These are the basis for cognitive development K-5, and all mathematical applications through algebra and beyond.
Making Math Real: Fractions, Decimals and Advanced Place Value
Fractions and their related applications are required tools for successful mathematical processing through calculus. This course will provide you with effective, hands-on strategies that finally make fractions, decimals, and advanced place value meaningful and accessible for all students.
Making Math Real: Pre-Algebra
This 8-day course continues the sequence from the Making Math Real Overview, 4 Operations & the 400 Math Facts, and Fractions, Decimals & Advanced Place Value courses, and provides the essential development for meeting the challenges of transitioning students from elementary math to algebra.  Prior knowledge of algebra is not required.
Making Math Real: Algebra
This NEW 8-day course continues the development from Making Math Real: Pre-Algebra and will complete the remaining components that comprise the full integration of algebraic law.  All of the content in pre-algebra and algebra is about providing students with the integration of algebraic problem solving tools for direct application in higher-level mathematics, specifically, algebra 2, trigonometry, pre-calculus (math analysis), and calculus.
Time and Money
Spend two days learning to successfully teach your students to tell time and work with money using Making Math Real methods.
Kindergarten
NEW - This course is a 2-day intensive focus on the comprehensive scope and sequence for Kindergarten.  Emphasis is on developmentally appropriate multisensory structured strategies to establish key fundamental pre-requisites for primary mathematics.
Games!
Join Making Math Real for one of the most popular make & take courses.  Spend two days having fun learning to make, apply and play high interest games to support the multisensory structured methods of Making Math Real.
Annual Summer Institute
Every year Making Math Real offers select courses from the professional development series for parents and educators during its Annual Summer Institute. The compact scheduling and consecutive order of the courses is ideal for parents and educators from out-of-town or local to the San Francisco Bay Area to enroll in any or all of the courses in the series.
