We speak with Lenny VerMaas from Lincoln Nebraska. Lenny has spent 28 years as a middle and high school classroom teacher followed by an additional 16 years working to support math teachers! Lenny shares with us struggles and strategies he’s learned and overcome over the years he’s helped teachers. This is another Math Mentoring Moment episode where we talk with a member of the Math Moment Maker Community who is working through problems of practice and together we brainstorm possible next steps and strategies to overcome them.
You’ll Learn: - The importance of students experiencing problem based lessons;
- How to support teachers when creating and delivering lessons;
- How to reverse the “I Do, We Do, You Do” teaching model; and,
- The importance of planning the details that matter when planning lessons.
