NIATM - Northern Illinois Association of Teachers of Mathematics
Affiliate of ICTM - Illinois Council of Teachers of Mathematics
Welcome!
Our organization encourages an active interest in all areas of mathematics and mathematics education, and affords a medium of interchange of views regarding the teaching of mathematics and related disciplines. We hope to further the study of problems relating to the teaching of mathematics and computer science across all grade levels (elementary, middle school, high school, and college) and all ability levels.
We serve Winnebago, Boone, and other counties in northern Illinois.
We invite you to take a look at our site and consider joining us for a dinner meeting. Consider joining our organization.
NIATM is a great way to interchange views regarding the teaching of mathematics and related disciplines, and to further the study of problems relating to the teaching of mathematics and computer science.
- NIATM is an approved provider of Continuing Professional Development Units (CPDU). Each presentation = 1 CPDU

Participate and learn about activities that engage students in topics
from descriptive statistics to inference. There will also be a
discussion in how we can use AI to help us with our lessons.
Math Routines are Magical, Until They Aren’t: Troubleshooting Common
Challenges with Math Routines Many curriculums and districts encourage
the use of routines such as Math Talks, Which One Doesn’t Belong,
Number Strings, Notice/Wonder etc. You see students sharing multiple
strategies or those “aha!” moments. But there can be challenges. From
students refusing to share, to no one understanding what to do, to
finding resources, to a 10-minute routine turning into a boring 30
minutes, I’ve been there! This session will explore what can go wrong
with routines and strategies to help it go right!
