Description
In this Math Mentoring Moment episode we speak with Venus, a high school teacher from Texas who is in her second year of teaching. Teaching statistics and algebra 2, Venus became accustomed to teaching students who’ve motivated themselves, and now she’s struggling to reach students working below grade level in her Math Concept course. Stick around and you’ll hear us dig deep on what’s really going on in her classroom and what small changes she can make so students start saying “I got this” instead of “I don’t understand this at all”. This is another Math Mentoring Moment Episode where we speak with a member of the math moment maker community where together we brainstorm strategies and next steps for teachers to overcome pebbles they have in their shoe. You’ll Learn: How we can use varying approaches to help students when they say “I don’t understand anything”;What to focus on first when it seems kids aren’t “getting it”; and, How do we help students work along a concept continuum so they can make the gains they need.Resources: Take the Make Math Moments Math Program Assessment Tool [Classroom Teacher & Leader Versions]Join the Academy - Free for 30 DaysDistrict Leader Resources:Take the Make Math Moments Math Program Assessment Tool The Make Math Moments District Planning Workbook [First 3 pages] Learn About Our District Improvement ProgramAre you a district mathematics leader interested in crafting a mathematics professional learning plan that will transform your district mathematics program forever?
