Has it been a challenge to implement class discussions into your lessons? When you send students to work at vertical whiteboards, is it more of a disaster than a delight? Are small group activities in your classroom a stressful struggle or a teacher triumph? If you are struggling to implement some of these pedagogical moves into your teaching, establishing effective norms with your students may be helpful. Small group activities, class discussions, and working at whiteboards can be successful learning tools when we have established classroom norms that support our pedagogical goals. Join us as we share new research about how to establish norms in a mathematics classroom. Learn how to introduce norms, refine them, and reinforce them throughout the school year.
