Monitoring

  • Listen, observe, identify key strategies
  • Keep track of approaches
  • Ask questions of students to get them back on track or to think more deeply

Monitoring is Step 2 of the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Math Discussions 

More Knowledgeable Other

Describes the role of the teacher as proactively supporting students' learning through co-participation. Stresses the importance of designing learning environments that support problematizing mathematical ideas, giving students mathematical authority, holding students accountable to others and to shared disciplinary norms, and providing students with relevant resources (Engle & Conant, 2002).



Multiple Modes of Instruction

Teachers use a variety of instructional strategies to engage students in teamwork, partner work, individual work, teacher-led discussions, presentations, and more.  Multiple modes of instruction provides differentiated learning opportunities for student engagement in a collaborative classroom.

MULTIPLE WAYS TO ACCESS INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE

This UDL principle connects to the Second Math Teaching Practice: 

Practice 2: Implement tasks that promote reasoning and problem solving. Effective teaching of mathematics engages students in solving and discussing tasks that promote mathematical reasoning and problem solving and allow multiple entry points and varied solution strategies.
