Episode 221 - Building Thinking Classrooms: The ONE Thing Math Coaches Need to Focus On

Building Thinking Classrooms is powerful—but when teachers try to implement all 14 practices at once, it falls apart. In this episode, I share a better approach for math coaches: focus on ONE practice based on what your teachers actually want to improve. I walk through why the "all at once" approach backfires, how to choose which practice to start with, and how to build incrementally so changes actually stick. Plus, I'm sharing three sessions at our free Virtual Math Summit that dig deeper into BTC—including a session from Peter Liljedahl himself specifically for math coaches on navigating the messy middle of implementation, Maegan Giroux on what kindergartners taught her about thinking classrooms, and Tammy McMorrow on building math identity and belonging.
