Building a Thinking Classroom for Math
This past June, our principal encouraged Rimpal Bamara and myself to read ‘Building a Thinking Classroom’ by Peter Liljedahl. I will admit that his invitation initially brought about some feelings of hesitancy on our part about the thought of changing what we had worked so hard to create in our currently successful Math programs. We committed to give at least a chapter or two a read over the summer and found the book to be so well written that we agreed to make some big changes to the way we ran our Math programs beginning that September.
