You’ll learn how to…
- ✅ Plan one “evidence moment” per lesson to capture real mathematical thinking
- ✅ Orchestrate discussions with 5 Practices (selecting & sequencing who shares)
- ✅ Create safe math spaces that elevate status and reduce math trauma
- ✅ Move from concept → vocabulary so terms actually stick
- ✅ Design finals review that pushes reasoning, not just recall
Mentioned:
- 🧭 Class norms & status-elevating talk moves
- 🧩 5 Practices for Mathematical Discussion
