Some questions to ask when choosing a math activity.

Does it:

provide a rich problem to solve?
facilitate conceptual understanding?
have diverse entry points for all Ss?
invite Ss questions?
foster creativity in thinking?

What do I need to do to ensure all the above?

@mcneillanne #leadershipshine Amen. the problem solving, curiosity driven approach should be part of a 2.5 yr to 18 years approach. Need to shed discipline drill and kill with project based problem solving. Check out what Finland is doing

Educators must progressively withdraw from the student, shifting the responsibility for learning from the teacher, where it traditionally is, to the learner where it belongs. The hardest working person in the classroom should never be the teacher, it should always be the student.
