Description
Looking to encourage deeper and more robust student thinking without radical changes? This mini workshop is for you. You'll learn to use these field-tested openers to start each day, without needing to develop new materials or change your class plan. It only takes five minutes a day to make math class more energized, focused, and fun.
We'll begin by exploring why math openers are so powerful, and why so many teachers rely on them. From there we'll talk about how to get started. We'll discuss openers that stimulate math talk, openers that develop ownership, openers that extend thinking, and openers that get kids playing creatively with math. Finally, we'll see how to prepare to use an opener and how to use them remotely.
The mini workshop comes with access to high quality, pre-made openers, so you won't need to spend extra time making your own. Learn how a tiny change can make a huge impact in your math class!
