K-3, 4-6

This session will focus on how to ask richer questions that suit all students in the Division 1 and 2 math classroom.

We will explore how to start with more standard questions and turn them into richer questions. Questions will be richer because they work for a broader range of students and because they lead to deeper mathematical conversations.

We will explore how the right questions can help students build number sense and measurement sense. We will particularly examine how we can encourage students to build problem solving skills and grit and build an ability to reason mathematically and critique mathematical arguments.  

Target Audience

Grades K-6 Math Teachers and Administrators
