“How might you be perpetuating the lack of belonging in your classroom?”
🔹”When we don’t consolidate the lesson, when we don’t bring order to the chaos, the ideas/emergent thoughts, float away” 🔹”We’re after transfer of collective knowing & doing to individual knowing & doing” @pgliljedahl#NCTM23
Always enjoy learning from @gfletchy & appreciate all of the work he has done in the area of mathematical fluency. “Listening to kids (share their thinking)is greater than listening for answers”. #NCTM23
