Join EOU Assistant Professor of Education, Karie Smucker, for this informative opportunity! This session will focus on the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematics Discussions, a teaching routine that supports dialogue and deep thinking around cognitively demanding tasks in K-12 classrooms. Participants will leave this session with an understanding of the 5 Practices approach, along with some specific tasks from a variety of grade levels that could be used to frame a lesson focused on discussion and inquiry.
