3. Our Process We’re going to watch two classroom videos We’re going to pause after a particular vignette and ask you to: – Spend a few of minutes individually thinking about what you would say to the student speaking and/or another student to push their thinking probe for understanding – Go around your table collecting input Don’t being your discussion until everyone contributes – Discuss your thoughts about commonalities & differences Don’t worry… we’ll repeat this slide after each vignette

4. Vignettes One & Two Comes from Jo Boaler’s book Connecting mathematical ideas which has two CDs of classroom videos in the back Our video is entitled “Convincing Others” and will show two students with two different approaches to explaining why 2(n-1) = 2n-2
