About the Course

In this 8-week book study course we will be discovering the magic of "Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12" by Peter Liljedahl. Participants will explore the 14 teaching practices aimed at fostering a thinking-centered approach to mathematics instruction. Through reading, reflection, discussions, and assignments, participants will gain insights and practical strategies to enhance their teaching practices and create a classroom environment that promotes student engagement, problem-solving skills, and mathematical thinking. This course is appropriate for all K-12 math teachers. Other content areas are welcome to join, but a majority of the resources are math related.

Reviews

Rachel Brown
This class has a very manageable workload and it gives all educators simple yet meaningful ideas they can implement in their classroom immediately! I highly recommend it.
Marisol Morales
I really enjoyed this class. The workload was manageable and allowed time for implementation and practice of what we were learning. Can't wait to continue implementing the thinking class now and new school year!
Gretchen Nolan
This was such a great course, and it got me thinking about every aspect of my teaching. There were so many powerful strategies that were easy to implement that got my students up, collaborating, and really THINKING!
