Intentional Lesson Discussion Transforms Math Classrooms
Intentional Lesson Discussion: Transforming Math Classrooms
Description
Book Introduction
Math classes depend on the teacher!
A book that presents practical methods for effectively structuring and questioning mathematical discussions according to intent and purpose!
For each discussion type, we provide lesson plan ideas that you can use directly in your lesson plans!

* Did you have trouble figuring out how to continue the conversation after asking why it was done that way?
* In the end, didn't we end up going back to the traditional teacher-centered explanatory classes?
* I know that discussion classes are important in math class, but I don't know how to lead them specifically!
* Teachers need to go beyond simply explaining why, and set different goals and engage in different forms of mathematical discussion depending on the problem-solving strategies they teach!

Teaching through classroom discussions in math classes is never an easy process for teachers.
This book is not just about helping teachers talk mathematically with their students; it's also a great guide for teachers to "intentionally and strategically" engage students in mathematical discussions in groups or across the class.
- Professor Yeo Seung-hyun, Daegu National University of Education (former professor at Alabama State University, USA)

* Highly recommended for anyone who wants to engage in mathematical discussions!
* Discussion support strategies for effective math discussions!
* Also provides many different types of math conversations that can occur in the classroom!
