These 4 simple steps helped me turn my math classroom from a place that was centered on my voice, to one that focused on my students. These simple steps will help you transform your teaching in math. I promise they are simple. 

In this episode you will learn:

  • About my comparison between the culture of literacy and the culture of math in our classrooms 
  • 3 ways we can build a math community mirrored after that of our literacy community.
    • Make your math classroom accessible
    • Create a magical palace where students can do real math
    • Get to know your mathematicians deeply
