This is awesome! One of my favorite videos that I've used of teacher questions comes from the Inside Mathematics collection where Patricia Ferrant does a masterful job guiding with teacher questioning in a lesson exploring the Pythagorean Theorem. https://www.insidemathematics.org/classroom-videos/public-lessons/8th-grade-math-pythagorean-theorem As a class of beginning math teachers, we watch, use the transcript, and try to make sense of different kinds of questions. Teachers then work in small groups on Jamboard or chart paper to create anchor charts of question stems organized in a taxonomy of question types that make sense to them. The group discussion that follows is full of ahas and more questions. This video will be a terrific complement. Thanks for sharing, Dan, and really cool to see snippets of you walking the walk with young people!
Love the focus on questions!!! It spawned more my own wonderings. I wonder what questions the students generated? Also, which teacher questions elicited student thinking, exploration, connection or collaboration?
Dan, thanks for sharing this video. I've learnt a lot seeing your math lesson. While I was watching you and listening questions you asked, it reminded me an article I read about it. It's titled "Talking Math: 100 Questions That Help Promote Mathematical Discourse". Here you'll find the link: https://www.gettingsmart.com/2016/01/08/talking-math-100-questions-that-help-promote-mathematical-discourse/
Hope it is useful for someone.
Thanks, Dan! I'd love to work with others to think about how to use this with preservice teachers.
