I used to think my job was to teach students to see what I see. I no longer believe this. My job is to teach students to see; and to recognize that no matter what the problem is, we don’t all see things the same way. But when we examine our different ways of seeing, and look for the relationships involved, everyone sees more clearly; everyone understands more deeply.

Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution.
They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals.
They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt.
They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution.
They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary.

#NoticeWonder
As young teachers, we believed our job was to carefully explain what we knew about mathematics to our students. We asked questions and listened to our students’ answers but our listening was aimed at assessing whether our students got what we had explained rather than uncovering their understanding of the content.
We now see that we missed valuable opportunities to develop students’ understanding because we did not elicit their ideas or relate their ideas to the content we were teaching.

We need more sense making. It needs to be the focus on our math instruction.
Students have lots of ideas about math that we need to hear and use in our instruction.

Q: What’s one way to cultivate a classroom focused on sense making rather than answer-getting?
A: Get rid of the question. Literally.

Q: What’s another way to cultivate a classroom focused on sense making rather than answer-getting?
A: Ask about ideas, not answers.

Mingle Questions
On something portable (paper, even), make two lists:
1. Three things you noticed in this session that might impact the instruction of math in your classroom, school, or district.
2. Three things you are wondering.

Mingle Instructions
• Stand up and move around. • Find someone and introduce yourself. • Ask them to read you what they noticed or wondered. • Listen to their answer. • Move on to find another person. • No back and forth, just ask one question and listen to
the answer. • When I raise my hand, finish your conversation and
raise your hand.

Mingle Reflections
• Individually, add at least two things to each of your lists that you heard from other teachers.
• Come to a consensus on the most common Noticing and Wondering at your table (if there is consensus).
• Anyone want to share out?
