Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that leads to persistent and significant difficulties in the development and mastery of oral language and, consequently, in learning to read and write. It is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, affecting approximately 7% of the population (e.g., McGregor, 2020).

This conference aims to:

  1. present the characteristics of DLD,
  2. identify its impacts on learning to read and write, and
  3. propose strategies for supporting students in the classroom.

Teaching Probability in Elementary School: A Dialogue Between Research and Practice

  • Date: May 14, 2026 at 4:00pm to 5:00pm 
  • Location: online on Zoom
  • Register Now

In Quebec, teaching probability is part of the elementary school curriculum, but it remains a challenge for teachers and still occupies a limited place in the classroom. This conference offers an accessible look at research conducted in recent years with teachers and students, with the aim of better understanding the issues surrounding this area of teaching and opening up new possibilities.

Drawing on concrete examples, we will explore selected findings from this research and highlight current practices as well as avenues for enriching the teaching of probability—particularly through the use of probabilistic stories and mathematical discussions. The conference aims to foster a meaningful dialogue between research and practice, in service of students and their learning.
