When students are given space to solve problems, they grow as thinkers. Here’s a short blog I wrote about reimagining math classrooms—with problem-solving at the core. Enjoy and make the shift! https://t.co/ud3AhBnetD

Thrilled for the upcoming year and all the opportunities it holds! I will be in beautiful Dominican Republic working at @StGeorgeRD for a few days. Take a look at this short blog:

By inviting children to solve problems in their own ways, we are initiating them into the community of mathematicians who engage in structuring and modeling their “lived worlds” mathematically. &nb…

A simple problem that gets students make sense of place value and allows them to communicate their reasoning #iteachmath #makingsenseofmathematics

I remember making this well over a decade ago now. I just remade it for MathsBot. Still quite fun. First one to beat my score of 89 is a good egg. https://t.co/XwKekf1plt

How can we ask better questions? Questions that push students’ thinking. #makingsenseofmathematics
📊Research has found that classrooms differ a great deal in quality of discussions--and those differences impact comprehension development. Please see below for examples of differences. For a self-assessment and guide to quality talk about text, see https://t.co/hWnyoFVV17

How do we find out how students are thinking about math? Definitely not through worksheets. #makingsenseofmathematics
Math worksheets rarely give us the results we truly want. There's a better way and I recorded a webinar with elementary and secondary versions that you can watch to learn more. https://t.co/WPMJtAuCWF
