What does it take to build a math community?
On this episode, we're talking about 3 things I don’t want you to miss in math class to help you forge a community of mathematicians that work together to problem solve through discussing their thinking, taking risks, and learning through mistakes.
We are chatting about:
- Creating entrance routines
- Having discussion structures
- Making room for kids to explain their math thinking
