Thanks to @P_A_Kirschner for chatting with the Science of Math book study about the book "How Learning Happens." This is such a good read and generated so many conversations about mathematics learning and teaching! amazon.com/How-Learning-Happ…
Next Mon (4/25), we'll talk about Ch. 15 in our Book Study. This chapter talks about "mathemagenic" activities - those which give birth to learning. What are ways you create a mathemagenic environment for your students?
Next Monday (4/25), we'll talk about Ch. 14 in our Book Study. The authors discuss how "drill and kill" is criticized but yet practice is essential for learning. What are skills that are important for your students to practice in math?
For discussion in our Book Study on 4/25 - let's talk about Chapter 13 today! This chapter talks about the benefits of individual tutoring, but stresses we can't provide that tutoring to everyone. So, what strategies from individual tutoring do you use in teaching math to groups?
In next week's Book Study (on 4/25), we'll talk about Section 3 in "How Learning Happens." Did you read Chapter 12? The authors talk about providing support and then when and how to fade that support. What are ways you know when to fade support?
