Evolving as an Educator: Journey to Demonstrating Mathematical Thinking - A Math Mentoring Moment

In this where are they now mentoring moment episode we speak again with Adam Love; Adam joined us back on episode 120 when he was as first year teacher from Myrtle Beach South Carolina. 

3 years later and a wealth of ideas, teaching strategies, and many lessons learned Adam is here to discuss how to help students show their thinking in multiple ways. 

This is another Math Mentoring Moment episode where we chat with a teacher like you who is working through some problems of practice and together we brainstorm ways to overcome them. 


You’ll Learn: 

  • How do I help students use models and strategies over the algorithms? 
  • How do I keep students on task when I’m working in small groups?
  • Why you need to be crystal clear with expectations around demonstrating understanding.
