Found this post after hearing your Global...Hi Alex!<br />Found this post after hearing your Global Math Dept presentation on Spiraling! This seems like an activity that would set up a good "questioning" mindset in any subject, so I'm excited about using it in my ESL class as well.<br />Question: During the Global Math Dept recording, you mentioned that you do three of these posters a semester... And I think you mentioned (in addition to this one): "What's good thinking/problem solving" and "What's good communication in math class". Is that right? When in the semester do you do these "co-creating criteria" exercises? On the one hand, I can see how it would be a great beginning of the year activity to set up the classroom culture, but on the other hand, I can see how having these discussions *throughout* the semester would be helpful as well...? (Also, I'm guessing that your classes are only a semester long, is that right?)<br />Thank you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05760307321520894393noreply@blogger.com
