Description:

In this episode we talk to Katrien Vance who is a veteran teacher that set a total different approach to give her students a sense of direction and help them stay focused. We outline why she did it, how she did it, and how it all worked out for the students.

You’ll learn:

  • How to redefine success in your classroom.
  • How to create lessons where students ask more questions.
  • How to create a math class where the word problems are the easiest problems to solve.
  • Why you should plan lessons that encourage thinking. How to avoid the assumption that students can’t think during your math lesson.
  • Benefits of getting the students to talk and opening up space to help them lead.
  • How trusting kids with what they know will benefit their overall performance.
