(The 3 Reads) routine has been a way…for meaningful coaching that is not just about implementing a new product/program. I’ve modeled it now in 3 different classrooms, and teachers have taken the routine and run with it. Students keep commenting to me in the hall telling me they read a problem 3 times following the routine in their head. My favorite was a 3rd grader who has received math support from a special educator since 1st grade. She happily came up to me and said, “I did 3 Reads today! I knew what the problem was about and what I was supposed to do all by myself! …my teacher was so happy because I figured out what to do without her!” How great is that?!? Her confidence was soaring, … and she could figure out the problem independently.

Live Webinar
Are you worried about how your students will approach learning mathematics in a post-pandemic classroom? Structural thinking, a building-on-strengths approach, and reasoning routines are three critical ingredients to address unfinished learning. In this webinar, we will explore how to integrate all three as we develop students’ capacity to interpret mathematical content, including expressions, equations, graphs, and representations, with confidence. We will focus on structural thinking in critical concepts in middle school mathematics: ratio and proportional relationships, algebratizing arithmetic, rational number concepts, geometric relationships, and/or functions. Leave the webinar with concrete strategies to advance your students’ unfinished learning while teaching grade level content.
