On the podcast, we talk a lot about how asset-based pedagogy, beliefs about mathematics, and how beliefs about who can learn mathematics impacts mathematics teaching. Today’s guest challenges us to move beyond beliefs and theory and move closer toward on the ground practice and a focus on evidence that drives learning forward for all students.

We might tell our kids and our students that learning never stops. Today’s guest challenges us to live into this mindset by altering our professional learning practices. And just like our learning, today’s episode is unfinished…Part 2 of my interview with Chase will happen for Episode 49.

Do you ever feel like there just isn’t enough time to let kids play with math? To let them explore the meaning of math word problems before solving them? Today’s guests talk all about a metaphorical sandbox that gives children the space and time to play, explore, engage, represent, and translate these problems into something meaningful to them. We’ll also learn about operational sense, using five different mathematical representations, and strategies to bring back to your teaching colleagues. One definition to note is about Bare number problems. These involve equations without context, such as solving 3 + 5 or 4 x 6. Now get ready to dig into the Mathematizing Sandbox.

I’m excited to have one of the authors of the series, Math By The Book join us for this episode. The Math by the Book series has a bundle for kindergarten through 5th grade and uses children’s literature as a vehicle for engagement, authenticity, and understanding the value of including context in our work with children to help them make connections about the world. Teachers are always looking to outside resources to build up their collection of activities and relevant tasks. Today’s episode also gives us some background and insight about what makes up a quality resource episode and reminds us that quality is often more valuable than quantity.

It seems like everyone always has an opinion about math and how math should be taught, especially to elementary students. With teachers learning and implementing an influx of new strategies, methods, and assessment plans, parents are often feeling left out of discussions about these techniques and as a result rely on how they were taught as a visual model for how children should be taught math today. Research shows us, however, that rote memorization and solely abstract representations are not effective ways to develop mathematical understanding or build positive math identities. So, how do we get this message across to parents? How do we get more parents involved in math discussions and deepen their understandings about the importance of math tools, practices, and talking about math?
Today’s episode explores not only the why, but the how of engaging parents in Kids Math Talk.

The Math education world talks a lot about positioning students for success, but What exactly is positioning? Turns out that the definition of positioning in the education world is not just about the physical location of one student versus another.
Host Desiree Harrison interviews Dr. Kathryn Chval, highlighting the book, Teaching Math to Multilingual Students, Grades K-8: Positioning English Learners for Success, that she co-authored.
Topics Explored:
1. What is positioning theory and how does it relate to education?
2. Strategies for positioning multilingual learners to success
3. Behaviors to avoidSupport the Show.
