Description:
I’ve scoured the internet, and I know for a fact that there are WAY more resources for K-8 math teachers than for secondary. So, high school teachers – this one’s for you! If you’ve ever wondered what strong math instruction at the high school level entails or what *exactly* the mathematical modeling process looks like, you’re in the right place. In today’s episode, math consultant, Barbara Beske, shares guidance, tips, and advice to help teachers develop true mathematicians in their classrooms. She also sheds light on the interplay between the instructional shifts of FOCUS and COHERENCE in high school. (She should know… Barbara spearheaded the creation of Achieve the Core’s high school coherence map!) Click play now to learn from this experienced educator.
