08/26/14 — THE "FIENDISHLY AMBIGUOUS" TALKING POINTS CHALLENGE!

Let's come up with some fiendishly ambiguous Talking Points to use in each different course. I've created a Google spreadsheet for each of the courses I can think of. 

 

Please contribute your craftiest, cagiest Talking Points to the spreadsheets and watch our Talking Points grow!

IF YOU ARE NEW TO TALKING POINTS, HERE'S A STARTING POINT:

 

 

TALKING POINTS MATERIALS (just the starting point)

Here is my brief overview of the procedure we used during the talking points activity (the version for teachers/PD):

 

Here's the original chapter that inspired me: 

 

Here are the first sets of Talking Points I created that are NOT about math. The point of doing non-math Talking Points is to establish a nonthreatening baseline in which everybody has equal access to the topic. I want to use these as a warm-up activity to set up a baseline for exploratory talk, then get kids to dive straight into math without commenting or stopping to form a transition.

SFUSD book on Teaching Restorative Practice Using Classroom Circles

This is the book that was written by and for San Francisco Unified School District for teachers and staff to learn how to use restorative circles. It's the best book out there and it is free!

A "CLASSIFYING" TASK FOR COLLABORATION

 

Lunar Pages (as described by Tina Cardone at the closing My Favorites session)

 

MY FAVORITES

Based on Pam Wilson's Plickers 'My Favorite'  — Julie Reulbach had the brilliant idea of having kids laminate their Plicker onto the outside back cover of their INB so they can hold it up in answer to multiple-choice hinge questions (thank you, Nik Doran!) and VOILÀ! You have an ongoing record of everybody's ongoing response patterns to Formative Assessment Questions!

 

If you need to knit or crochet a small stellated dodecahedron of your own, here is the free pattern online (by one of my knitting heroes, Norah Gaughan): http://www.berroco.com/patterns/celestine-sox (and the Museum of Math post that started it all)
