Have you ever asked a student "How'd you get that?" and gotten a shrug, or "I just knew"? What you ask NEXT decides whether you actually get them to explain their thinking.
In this episode, I break down two patterns of questioning from the NCTM article Questioning Our Patterns of Questioning by Beth Herbel-Eisenmann and M. Lynn Breyfogle: funneling and focusing. Funneling feels like good teaching, but we end up doing the thinking for our kiddos. I'll show you what each pattern sounds like in an elementary classroom using a 38 + 25 example and a K-1 dot image. You'll get the focusing questions I use to turn a funnel around, plus a simple way to check how much you funnel in your lessons.
