Building a Thinking Classroom

Help me give my students have a chance to participate in "Building a Thinking Classroom". I want my students to rely less on the teacher doing all the thinking for them.

My Project

These materials are going to get my kids talking about the Math. My students need to understand that struggling is not a bad thing. They can do the hard problems when given the opportunity to struggle with each other. Being able to work out the problems on a whiteboard with a small group is going to invite those conversations to happen. This will allow everyone to participate.

My students are going to make vocabulary flashcards to keep with them and use when needed.

The whiteboards are for small group work.
