Welcome fellow Recovering Traditionalists to Episode 30, where we are going to get inspiration from Jessica Boyer, a 4th Grade Math Specialist. In this interview, Jessica mentions that her school has no curriculum for her to use.  Now I’m not a fan of relying solely on a textbook and I’m a big advocate of teaching without a textbook.  Jessica mentions how the extreme end of the spectrum can also be difficult. When you don’t have a textbook to follow you aren’t sure where to go.  That’s why I’m a big advocate for learning the learning progressions that kids go through when developing their understanding of mathematics. In this episode she talks about her journey of doing that.  Get all the info here: buildmathminds.com/30
