State Mathematics Conference

As North Carolina is in the process of drafting and publishing new mathematics standards, Tinker Together invites educators and leaders across the state to explore, design, and learn collaboratively.

This year’s conference centers on hands-on experimentation, data literacy, and shared problem-solving as we build the instructional and leadership supports needed for successful K–12 implementation. “Tinkering” represents curiosity, iteration, and growth — the very mindset we want for our students and ourselves.

What to Expect

Instructional strategies that elevate student thinking
Meaningful uses of data to inform decisions
Tasks that promote modeling, reasoning, and discourse
Leadership moves that support coherent systems
Practices that foster joyful learning and equitable access

This conference is a space to think boldly, collaborate deeply, and strengthen our collective commitment to empowering every learner through mathematics and data.

The proposal submission window has closed. We look forward to seeing you there!
