About this episode
You’re starting the school year and it’s time to set the bar high. Let’s talk about how you can get every child engaged now so that they stay engaged all year.
In this episode, I'm sharing 3 ideas to get every student engaged in math class.
We are chatting about:
- Community building experiences that build trust, relationships, mindsets, and norms
- Expectations and how to communicate them and provide accountability
- The importance of feedback and how it can be used for teachers AND students
