KP®Ten-Frame
Focused
Opportunities
KP®Mathematics Ten-Frame workshops and seminars take the unique approach of applying the already-popular ten-frame to the entire base-ten system. The emphasis placed on integrating Ten-Frame Mathematics into instruction with district- and school-adopted curricula and resources encourages teachers to bring these new ideas into active use in their classrooms.
District-Wide Workshops
These workshops offer opportunities for teachers in single grades or grade-clusters to gather together from across your district and engage in deep learning of Ten-Frame Mathematics strategies and methods specific to their classrooms.
School-Based Workshops
These workshops are similar in content to district-wide workshops, with a focus on Ten-Frame Mathematics strategies and methods specific to the selected grade levels. The primary focus here is on the learning needs and goals of the teachers specific to one campus.
Mathematics Coaching for Teachers and Leaders
Coaching offers individual and small-group job-embedded coaching to facilitate transformational professional learning. KP®Mathematics consultants work with classroom teachers, grade-levels, teacher leaders, coaches, and administrators, helping them refine their respective skills.
KP® Program
Focused
Opportunities
KP®Mathematics Program-Focused Workshops and Coaching focus on successful implementation of The Amazing Ten Frame, Serious Play, Expeditions to Numeracy, or Above & Beyond, ensuring that teachers follow the programs faithfully in order to maximize student success.
Amazing Ten Frame Workshops
These workshops afford teachers the opportunity to dive deep in to their grade-level-specific strategies designed by KP Mathematics authors. These workshops focus on conceptual understanding and representations of base-ten mathematics. They also include problem solving tasks and interactive game extensions for each mathematics standard. Participants walk away with a variety of standards-based lessons for using ten-frame mathematics right away in their classroom.
Serious Play
Workshops
These workshops bring teachers together to engage in a unique approach for helping students grapple with the structure of mathematics. While engaging in game play, students grapple with behaviors of the properties of operations (commutative, associative, distributive, etc.) while practicing mental math skills and enjoying strategy-play. Teachers walk away with a plethora of games that guide both learning and teaching.
Expeditions to Numeracy Workshops
These workshops provide the content and pedagogical foundation for using KP Ten-Frame Tiles in an intervention setting. In addition, teachers learn to navigate the Expeditions to Numeracy program components and prepare their assessment notebooks for the “continuous assessment and instruction” pathway through the program. Participants walk away with an understanding for how to navigate the Expeditions to Numeracy program as well as how to use ten-frame tiles as the basis for learning and teaching.
Above & Beyond
Workshops
These workshops provide the content and pedagogical foundation for using KP Ten-Frame Tiles in classrooms for students in special education. In addition, teachers learn to navigate the Above & Beyond program components and prepare their assessment notebooks for monitoring student progress. Participants walk away with an understanding for how to navigate the Above & Beyond program as well as how to use ten-frame tiles as the basis for learning and teaching.
KP®Mathematics Program Coaching
KP®Mathematics Program Coaching extends the learning experiences from the workshops, helping participants connect their learning directly to classroom instruction.
KP®Mathematics Coaches work directly alongside the teachers, demonstrating, co-teaching, planning, and guiding teachers as they implement tools, strategies, and methods that help students build critical understanding.
Additional Topics
KP Mathematics has partnered with Kim Rimbey Consulting to offer a variety of workshops based on Kim’s popular books. Kim and the KP PD Team works with teachers on high-impact topics such as:
Mastering Math Manipulatives
This hands-on, minds-on learning experience empowers educators to make mathematics meaningful through the strategic use of manipulatives and visual tools.
Participants will deepen their understanding of how physical and digital representations can support conceptual development, procedural fluency, and reasoning skills.
Grounded in Mastering Math Manipulatives (Grades K–3 & 4–8) and supported by KP Ten-Frame Tiles and a variety of classroom tools, this course equips teachers to confidently plan and deliver instruction that bridges the gap between concrete and abstract thinking.
Meaningful Small Groups in Math
This dynamic course equips educators with the tools, structures, and strategies to implement effective math
small groups that accelerate math learning for every student.
Through interactive workshops and real-time classroom application, participants will learn to leverage data, manipulatives, and scaffolded pathways to differentiate instruction, close learning gaps, and increase student engagement.
Whether working with intervention groups or high-achieving students, educators will leave prepared to make small group instruction a powerful part of their math classroom.
Seeing the Math You Teach
See the Math You Teach invites educators to take a fresh look at the structure and coherence of mathematics mathematics standards across grade levels and domains.
Grounded in the belief that conceptual understanding fuels procedural fluency, this course helps teachers build deep content knowledge and instructional clarity using powerful visual tools, manipulatives,and research-based strategies.
Participants explore math through a new lens—one that strengthens both teacher expertise and student understanding.
Building Thinking Classrooms
Kim Rimbey, Chief Learning Officer and CEO of KP Mathematics, is an Official Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) consultant working directly with Peter Liljedahl.
As part of the BTC consultant team, Kim facilitates the same high-impact workshops and co-teaching opportunities designed by Peter, bringing her unique perspective as a seasoned teacher and leader.
Participants will experience BTC firsthand, deepen their understanding of its 14 key practices, and receive practical support for implementation—all grounded in real classrooms with real students.
