Building Thinking Classrooms #1

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

This workshop is part 1 of a 4 part series that will come later in the school year. This session is designed to introduce participants to the 14 teaching practices for enhancing learning outlined in Peter Liljedahl’s book, Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics. He recommends a gradual implementation of the practices, so that’s how this series is designed.

Do you strive to help students go beyond rote memorization and repetitive calculations? Many traditional classroom norms and habits actually enable “non-thinking” student behavior. In this session, we’ll set the stage for transforming your classroom into one focused on learning-centered, student-owned deep mathematical thinking and learning. At the heart of Liljedahl’s vision lies the concept of the “Thinking Classroom” – a dynamic ecosystem where mathematical discourse thrives and students engage in productive struggle. It’s not just a set of strategies. It’s a comprehensive approach to building a classroom environment where thinking takes center stage. Each session will highlight different strategies from Peter's book. All participants will receive their initial book at Toolkit 1
