Welcome!

 Welcome to our 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematics Discussions book study...I am so thankful that you are here! 

By the end of this book study you will: 

• have a deeper understanding of what the 5 practices for orchestrating productive math discussions are

• try some new strategies that will assess and advance students' thinking

• discover how some of our colleagues across the district are engaging their students in rich math discussions

• earn 12 clock hours! 

I hope you find this book to be both inspiring and practical. Feel free to read and respond to prompts at your own pace. You will notice at the top of this page that the chapters have been chunked into 6 parts. Please pause after each part to share an idea or a reflection. As you read our colleagues' reflections, feel free to respond by sharing a comment, insight or interesting possibility. We get better by learning together! 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. 

I'm excited to learn together!
