In the same way that you won't learn to drive by playing Mario Kart, #students won't become mathematical thinkers by watching their teacher explain a process. #LetThemStruggle #mathematics #maths #math #equity

Lecturing in #Mathematics is like trying to build muscle in someone else by lifting the weights yourself and having them watch.

To open up discussions that lead to conceptual understanding, challenge #mathematics to go beyond finding the answer and ask them to create multiple representations (3+) of the solution.

Instead of rescuing our students' incorrect answers by telling them how to solve a #math problem, we should rescue their thinking by using questions that point to the big ideas of #Mathematics.
