What do we do when the students aren't present? Let's discuss managing absences, whether unplanned or pre-planned. What are the best strategies for limiting learning loss when the students are out of the classroom?
This session explores routines where students analyze correct and flawed sample solutions to consolidate their mathematical thinking in Building Thinking Classrooms environments. By centering reasoning over answer-getting, errors become key tools for discussion, reflection, and deeper understanding.
In this session, we provide geometric definitions for all six trig functions and connect secants, tangents, and chords with the secant, tangent, and sine functions. From these definitions we use geometry (e.g., Pythagorean Theorem, similar triangles) to generate trigonometric identities.
