Let’s Talk Math! Math Routines That Foster Reasoning, Thinking, and Student Talk
About the Course
In this course, teachers will explore several different math routines that get students talking about math in a fun and non-intimidating way. These routines can be easily built into an already existing lesson plan because they only take 5-10 minutes. Help build consistency in your math classroom so students are using math reasoning skills and critical thinking without even realizing they’re doing math! Participants will also connect math routines to the Standards for Mathematical Practices (SMP). This course is appropriate for all K-12 math teachers.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Analyze math routine resources.
- Design and implement math routines for their classroom.
- Connect math routines to the Standards for Mathematical Practices (SMP).

So many great resources to get students talking about math. Implemented them as I was learning about them and the kids loved them. It was fun to hear them talking about math and enjoying themselves. Highly recommend!

This class was great! There were so many new routines that were new to me that I was able to implement the next day. It wasn't too heavy on reading, which was really nice. The instructor structured the class in a way that you left with plenty of ready to use routines and had access to what other peers created.

Great math routines can be adapted from early elementary through advanced high school mathematics and are especially effective for building reasoning, communication, and conceptual understanding.
