Ep 152: Changing Math Habits

How do you naturally approach math problems? How do you wish  you would naturally approach problems? In this episode Pam and Kim discuss how we as teachers and our students can form powerful new habits to become better mathematicians.
Talking Points:

• We all have habits based on our own experiences
• Can we change our old habits?
• Is it easy to change old habits?
• Do you have to know the most efficient strategy when you start messing with a problem?
• Can you change your mind about which strategy you want to use after you have started working with a problem?
• How long does it take a student's numeracy to grow?
• Want to change some of your mathematical habits?
