collaborative learning environment

Operating from an asset-based lens caused us to identify and value ways to measure student learning and understanding, rather than focus on their temporary misconceptions.

When math students engage in multiple modes of learning, they internalize concepts together and cultivate safe learning environments for each other.

When math teachers are intentional about their instructional conditions, students of all ability levels can learn from each other.

Non-curricular math tasks are easy tools to use to build classroom community when planned with intention.
