Ready to energize your math block and get students truly thinking? This session, inspired by Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics by Peter Liljedahl, will show you how to transform your classroom into a space where curiosity, collaboration, and problem-solving thrive.
Thinking Groups is an activity that aligns with every math standard and grade level and can be implemented at the beginning, middle, and/or end of a unit multiple times throughout the year. Students never get tired of it because each task is always different.
If you’re looking to move beyond repetitive procedures and build a classroom where students think deeply, take risks, and solve problems creatively, this session is for you.
