Got rid of my teacher desk today and dragged my lab bench to the middle of the room. Gives students more room plus I can teach from anywhere and they can all see me. De-fronting for the win #thinkingclassroom #thereisnoback Peter Liljedahl Jeff Waite Robb Caporicci

Thinking classrooms in action with Mr. Pilitsis & Mr. White’s gr 7/8’s! Great conversations and cosolidation! Bonaventure Meadows Wendy MacInnis Rebecca Channer tvdsbmath Peter Liljedahl

I just want to say that I, Danika Tipping, an ENGLISH TEACHER did math PD all day today and loved it. It was terrifying, but my colleagues supported me and made it safe to take risks and learn. That's the kind of learning I want my students to engage in.

Robb Caporicci thank you for sharing thinkingclassroom concepts with teachers - we’re putting it into practice!

So amazing to see this cross-panel collaboration between Thames Valley DSB Grade 8 and Grade 9 teachers engaging in #thinkingclassroom math tasks! Leeat Cribbs Christine Gianna
