NSD Summer Institute 2024

In this professional learning opportunity, participants will focus on the first 3 instructional strategies presented in the book, Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12 by Peter Liljedahl. Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) helps teachers implement 14 optimal practices for thinking that create an ideal setting for deep mathematics learning to occur. Sparked by observing teachers struggle to implement rich mathematics tasks to engage students in deep thinking, Peter has translated his 15 years of research into this practical guide on how to move toward a thinking classroom. This guide...
- provides the what, why, and how of each practice
- includes firsthand accounts of how these practices foster thinking
- offers a plethora of macro moves, micro moves, and rich tasks to get started
Participants must register for session #36669 in Performance Matters for equity hours. See agenda for registration link: https://bit.ly/BTC_2024SI
