This session will focus on maximizing student discourse in the mathematics classroom to increase student engagement and understanding. We will explore different ideas for how to really know what your students are thinking while providing them support to develop the use of academic vocabulary. We will talk about how to make this a reality for all learners.
Unpack the major pitfalls that students encounter when trying to be "problem performers" instead of "problem solvers". Understand what strategies ACTUALLY help students unpack math problems to determine the best path to solve.
