What does it really take to create a classroom where students not only learn math but also trust themselves, their peers, and their teacher? In this episode, I sit down with educator Ed Spicer to talk about building a math classroom community where students are independent, curious, and unafraid of hard things.
A Classroom That Changed Everything
When I first visited Ed Spicer’s 1st grade classroom, I was floored. His students weren’t waiting for instructions—they were running through morning routines on their own, journaling, exercising their brains, and preparing for the day with total independence. In this episode, Ed shares how creating a strong classroom community builds student ownership and transforms learning.
