Who is doing most of the talking in the class?
Is the task rich enough to allow a good level of reasoning and conversation to happen?
Open Questions and Discourse

Talk Moves
How do talk moves encourage students to make connections with each other?
Which talk moves do you use in your classroom? Which could you add?
Reflection
Can you tell me what … just said?
Can you repeat what … just said?
Re-voicing and Repeating
Can you say, in your own words, what … just explained?
Restating
Do you agree or disagree?
What can you add to what … just said?
What do you think about what … just said?
Apply Your Own Reasoning

Why Math Talk?
Five Major Reasons That Talk Is Critical to Teaching and Learning
1. Talk can reveal understanding and misunderstanding.
2. Talk supports robust learning by boosting memory.
3. Talk supports deeper reasoning.
4. Talk supports language development.
5. Talk supports development of social skills.

How will you implement discourse in your classroom?
Plan Your Math Talk Moves
From Orchestrating Discussions (Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2009)
1. Anticipating student responses to challenging mathematical tasks
2. Monitoring students’ work on and engagement with the tasks
3. Selecting particular students to present their mathematical work
4. Sequencing the students responses that will be displayed in a specific order
5. Connecting different students’ responses and connecting the responses to key mathematical ideas
