Description

Is mathing just about allowing students to solve problems their way? Aren't Probem Strings and Problem Talks really just the same routine? In this episode Pam and Kim discuss how Problem Strings move beyond Problem Talks to develop student's mathematical reasoning at a more sophisticated level.
Talking Points:

  • Example of a Problem Talk
  • What do we gain from Problem Talks?
  • Example of a Problem String
  • Problem Strings are more focused conversations 
  • Problems Strings allow for constant feedback, a high dose of patterning
