🌟 Exciting Things Are Happening in Math! 🌟
There’s something special happening in Mrs. Burton’s 3rd grade classroom! One of the strategies they are rolling out is called Building Thinking Classrooms.
Each week, students will work together on a challenging math task using our vertical whiteboards. The goal isn’t just to get the “right answer”, it’s to get students thinking, talking, problem-solving, collaborating, and explaining their mathematical ideas. 🧠➕✏️
Mrs. Burton was proud to watch our students take risks, share ideas, learn from one another, and persevere when the answer wasn’t immediately obvious. They are excited to continue completing one thinking task each week and grow some amazing mathematicians along the way!
