A thinking student is an ENGAGED student!
Are you teaching as though students cannot or will not think?
Or teaching students who don’t believe they are “math people”?
Join us to learn proven strategies from Liljedahl’s Building a Thinking Classroom in Mathematics implemented in a gifted cluster group classroom.
Tryout thinking classroom activities and discover how to shift your classroom!
ABOUT THE BOOK: Sparked by observing teachers struggle to implement rich mathematics tasks to engage students in deep thinking, Peter Liljedahl has translated his 15 years of research into this practical guide on how to move toward a thinking classroom.
Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12 helps teachers implement 14 optimal practices for thinking that create an ideal setting for deep mathematics learning to occur.
Purchasing the book is recommended but not mandatory.
