As an instructional math coach, walking into a classroom means balancing observation with intentional support. But what happens when a teacher is in the early stages of implementing an effective practice? In this episode, we explore how to apply the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematics Discussions to plan meaningful coaching moves. We'll dive into the power of assessing and advancing questions—both for guiding student learning and for fostering rich coaching conversations. How can we anticipate the questions that will move a teacher forward? Let’s practice together and refine our approach to coaching with purpose.

Key discussion points include:

  • How to enter a classroom with a clear focus on an effective teaching practice.
  • How to prepare questions in advance to guide reflection and next steps.
  • Real-world examples of assessing and advancing questions in action.
  • How thoughtful questioning supports gradual implementation and teacher growth.

Rather than pushing against resistance, this approach amplifies successful implementation.
