SUMMARY:The One Classroom Shift that Increases Math Achievement\, Effort\, and Persistence—Without Adding to Your Workload
DESCRIPTION:– FREE WEBINAR –\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The One Classroom Shift that Increases Math Achievement\, Effort\, and Persistence—Without Adding to Your Workload\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				THURSDAY \nMay 7 | 2026\n12:30 PM – 1:00 PM EST\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Right now\, many of our mathematics classrooms are working against three significant challenges: persistent skill gaps\, growing math anxiety\, and lower student engagement. And\, despite our best efforts\, many of our current grading systems are not helping—and often making these issues worse. \nWhat if one simple shift in your grading system could reduce gaps and anxiety while boosting effort and engagement?  \nThe shift? Target-Based Grading. \nThis webinar is based on Kevin Bandura’s 27 years of experience as a math teacher and his journey in transforming his own math classroom. Learn how shifting to target-based grading improves outcomes in real math classrooms by . . . \n\nReplacing compliance and “scorekeeping” with a commitment to growth and learning.\nBuilding in a structured retake system that promotes student mastery and positive mindset.\nRelying less on superficial grading and providing more time for meaningful feedback and guidance.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Don’t miss this 30-minute webinar with live Q&A!\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				REGISTER TODAY\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				ABOUT THE PRESENTER\nBefore becoming Thoughtful Classroom’s mathematics specialist\, Kevin Bandura served as an Instructional Specialist\, Education Recovery Leader\, and Chief Academic Officer\, as well as a math teacher for 27 years. Kevin is passionate about creating academically safe learning environments that encourage deep thinking\, provide clear expectations\, and achieve positive outcomes for all students. Kevin was instrumental in the development of the NEW Deeper Learning in Mathematics online professional learning suite. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Ready to get started? \nContact us to learn more and set up a free consultation with Kevin Bandura.
