Getting students to think is a hot topic - but what does it actually mean? When kids are asked to "show their thinking", can we really blame them for being like "WTF?!?!"
Today on Math Therapy, Vanessa explores the surprising number of ways we can define & interpret "thinking", and shares 5 strategies to demystify it in the classroom:
- Explain what thinking actually means
- Normalize that the thought process isn't always quick
- Give prompts that invite students into a conversation
- Outer process - talk it out before writing it down
- Model your own thinking as a teacher
How do YOU define thinking? Let us know below!
