The meaty definition of math discussions from NCTM’s book Principles to Actions… β€œa purposeful exchange of ideas through classroom discussion. Opportunities to share ideas and clarify understandings, construct convincing arguments regarding why and how things work, develop a language for expressing mathematical ideas, and learn to see things from other perspectives.”
