Imagine if we can build a cultural shift in mathematics by inviting students into thoughtful conversations, and engaging them in meaningful math experiences through authentic daily math routines. We will share our journey on how we create a learning environment where young mathematicians interact with the math in their world and shift their thinking so that they see themselves as problem solvers. The most successful routines make mathematical thinking a habit resulting in fluency, engagement, empowerment, confidence and deeper understandings of math relationships.

Talk 58:  OAME 2024 Preview #1

In this session, we will share strategies to develop sets of "thin sliced" questions. These questions are meant to have an accessible entry point and to progress to challenging questions, allowing students to work at their own pace and achieve their highest potential. We will share sets of questions from various secondary courses and topics. These questions can be used both in a traditional classroom and a "Thinking Classroom". Come prepared to make your own set
