    Episode 12 - The Students Have Their Say About Thinking Classrooms

    In this episode, we take a different direction by talking directly to students in #ThinkingClassrooms from a few of our schools. You'll hear from students in Grades 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 11 as they share how math has been different this year, what they've liked and disliked, and what they hope for the future of math class. Enjoy!

    Episode 9 - English Language Learners in Thinking Classrooms /w Karen Quiroz-Norman

    In this episode of RCSD Thinks, we chat with Karen Quiroz-Norman (@KQuirozNorman), Multicultural & Multilingual Consultant with RCSD. Karen shares her insights as an EAL (English as an Additional Language) expert and shares some of the wonderful learning she has seen in classrooms that have implemented #ThinkingClassrooms. Ultimately, Karen lays out why the Thinking Classroom practices are so valuable for classrooms with students who are still learning the language. Please excuse some of the background noise from students - this episode was recorded after school next to Dean's passionate e-sports club.

    Episode 6 - A High School Perspective of The Thinking Classroom /w Jeremy S

    In this episode, we had the great pleasure of chatting with an amazing math counterpart from Regina Public Schools, Jeremy Sundeen (@jsundeen, email). He teaches Foundations, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus at Sheldon Williams Collegiate and works with pre-service math teachers at the University of Regina. Jeremy has always been a fan of inquiry based math lesson and using the #ThinkingClassroom in his classroom was a natural fit.
