This week I have Mona from Honest Math Chat on to discuss navigating new math curriculums. Mona is a former math avoider, teacher & instructional coach in Chicago. Her passion for math came when she discovered how to engage every student in a subject she, too, disliked. Through intentionally changing her math class to help students BE mathematicians using a student centered approach math came alive for Mona and her students. Now Mona collaboratively coaches teachers in building a math culture through rigorous student centered math instruction. You can listen to Mona every Monday on her podcast, Honest Math Chat.

In this episode I share:

  • Teaching Math in a Student-Centered Way
  • Dealing with New Curriculum Challenges
  • Adapting Curriculum to Student Needs
  • Advocating for Student-Centered Teaching
  • Strategies for Encouraging Student Participation
