Restoring Mathematics Roundtable 2025

SOLD OUT!

We had an incredible 2 days of gathering to hear from Dr. Francis Su of Mathematics for Human Flourishing. A highlight for many participants was our roundtable discussions where we discussed principles and practices of a classical math classroom.

Want to join us next year for Roundtable 2026?

Who We Are

We are a group of teachers passionate about building math thinkers, not just math calculators. We love classical Christian education and offer support, training and research to schools regarding the principles and practices of a classical math classroom. We value a positive classroom culture where affections for math are cultivated and lessons include opportunities for productive struggle, failure, perseverance, critical thinking and wonder. We help teachers become great math storytellers using proven methods and research-based data.

The Story Illuminated

A good storyteller can make a good story sound great, but a bad storyteller can take a classic story and make it sound terrible. Teachers must be equipped to know mathematics deeply, how to engage students in class and how to take any lesson and make it come alive with wonder, curiosity and discussion. Whatever the curriculum, the way we tell the story makes all the difference.

A Mathematics Catechism

What is Mathematics?

K-2: “Mathematics is playing with patterns.”

3rd- 6th: “Mathematics is examining patterns to find their meaning.”

7th-12th: “Mathematics is the science of patterns and the art of engaging the meaning of those patterns.” - Francis Su
