What's your favorite strategy to get maths students reasoning and problem-solving? Explain how it works in your classroom and why you think it's effective?

I recently joined the Edutopia team to talk about "rich math tasks" on the School of Practice podcast. We cover the impact of tiny shifts, like asking students: “Can you prove it to me visually?” And we discuss the role of fluency, procedural practice, and rigor in deep math thinking.

You can listen to the episode on Apple and Spotify.
