Description

Have you ever asked yourself the question, is student enjoyment or student achievement our goal? Yes, we know that it’s both but sometimes there might not be a balance between the two. In this week’s podcast, we’re discussing this topic with Jill Bratton, a second grade teacher, who shares how the thing she’s learned has impacted student learning.

The Build Math Minds podcast is for my fellow Recovering Traditionalists out there. If you don’t know whether or not you are a Recovering Traditionalist, here’s how I define us. We are math educators who used to teach math the traditional way. Flip lesson by lesson in the textbook, directly teaching step-by-step how to solve math problems. But now, we are working to change that to a style of teaching math that is fun and meets our students where they are at, not just teaching what comes next in the textbook. We want to encourage our students to be thinkers, problem solvers, and lovers of mathematics..we are wanting to build our students math minds and not just create calculators. If that is you, then this podcast is for you.
