Reply To: A teacher being challenged

Congrats for taking this leap! One of the best ways to build your own confidence is to “do the math”. This is the only way you can begin to understand the approaches students might use and to explicitly prepare to make connections across the different representations students might use. It is also helpful to do this with other teachers so you all can compare your work / anticipate what your students might do with a variety of perspectives / approaches.
