There is an increased emphasis on the seven Mathematical Processes for teaching and learning in this new math curriculum. This week the focus is on Communication. A link to the Alberta Education website has been added to the moodle site.

Do you have any ideas on how to encourage Communication in a mathematics classroom? Are there any teaching techniques or methods you found to be successful that you would like to share? Are there any digital apps that support communication with and among students?

All ideas are welcome.

I really enjoy using my document camera for communication.  I put their work under and ask them to defend their reasoning and work.  

 

Very fun!!
