Moving Student Thinking Forward with Graham Fletcher


Listen Later

How do we move student thinking forward in a way that’s meaningful, inclusive, and still hits all the demands of teaching math? I had an opportunity to chat about all of this and so much more with today's guest, Graham Fletcher. Graham is a former classroom teacher and instructional lead and is currently a math specialist. He is the coauthor of Building Fact Fluency and shares so many fantastic resources on his website.

In this episode, we dive into everything from choosing rich tasks that provide multiple entry points, to the art of assessing where students are within a learning progression. We also talk about balancing conceptual understanding with the pressure put on us by pacing guides. This conversation is full of actionable ideas to move students' thinking forward.
