Helping Parents to See The “Why” In Math Class - A Math Mentoring Moment
Manage episode 332089204 series 2471185
In this Where Are They Now? episode, we speak with Tom Marker, a 6th grade teacher from Ohio. Tom is back to update us on how he has progressed moving students away from relying on algorithms towards reasoning and applying strategies when solving problems.
After an update from Tom, you’ll hear the current pebble knocking around in his shoe as he seeks to find balance when it comes to the expectations he holds for students in his classroom and how he can help the parents at home better understand the “why” behind how math is being taught in his classroom.
This is another Math Mentoring Moment episode where we talk with a member of the Math Moment Maker Community who is working through problems of practice and together we brainstorm possible next steps and strategies to overcome them.
You’ll Learn:
- How to ensure that expectations are the right balance for your grade level;
- How you can ensure that you are promoting more thinking in your classroom than mimicking;
- How can we define different levels of success for our students; and,
- How we can communicate classroom successes with stakeholders at home.
