S10/E7: Embracing mathematical mindsets to improve instruction for MLLs with Adrian Mendoza

from Highest Aspirations · host Ellevation Education

What are three mathematical mindsets that can guide instruction for MLs and help them thrive? How can teachers approach academic conversations and building in differentiation in a way that won’t feel overwhelming? What can teachers do to ensure they are building in time for high-quality interactions while delivering instruction? We discuss these questions and much more with Adrian Mendoza. Adrian joined us at our IMPACT conference last year and we just had to bring him back for a podcast interview. He has provided Professional Development to educators in districts and educational service centers for more than 7 years, working with teachers and parents in United States, Mexico, and Costa Rica. Adrian joined our friends at Seidlitz Education from his previous role as an Instructional Math Coach in San Marcos CISD. His commitment leads him to innovate in the education area, and his present action research project is about the importance of Building Mathematical Growth Mindset Communities. Adrian is an author of the book Teaching Math to ELs, which we highly recommend. Visit our EL Community page for episode resources, related content and more. Download the episode transcript here.
