My take away was to begin to explore the ‘right’ thinking in the ‘wrong’ answer with more awareness and intentionality. Thank you 🙂

One big take away from this presentation was that as a teacher I need to take the time to understand a student’s thinking when they don’t get the answer that the rest of the class got or the answer I think they should get. Their thought process matters and can give me so much more insight than their answer. I can use their thinking to gauge their understanding and the next steps to take.

I loved the idea of having students tell a story about what they see as a means of letting us learn more about the student and to let students bring themselves into the math.

Agreed! What a great way to show that you value student voice and honour their thinking!
