Reply To: Lesson 4-6: Question

I remember listening to the “Be More Prince” podcast episode a while back! Yes, everyone should be more Prince <3

In my efforts to get more teachers to be more Prince, I will be pushing teachers to really see the value in concrete and visual representations. I feel that, even though teachers might have the concrete representation, some don’t trust that students will use manipulatives properly or they fear they’ll lose student’s focus on the lesson. My goal is to get teachers to trust the process and let students explore while using the manipulatives in the classroom.
