Q12: How can we use Labor Day to teach students about the grit required to overcome systemic challenges, and how can we use math to model the impact of labor contributions? Learn more at www.india-white.com. @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social @nctm.org @mathedleaders.bsky.social

Q11:"How do you move beyond surface-level praise to intentionally celebrate each student’s unique identity? How do you proactively dismantle the culture of shame or 'masking' that occurs when students feel they must hide their true selves?" @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mathedleaders.bsky.social

A6 I use Ingenious Influencers Like Me daily. They are stories that connect us with mirrors, windows, sliding glass doors. #ElemMathChat

Q10: When a student gets frustrated with a new concept, what specific language or "scripts" do you use to help them shift from "I can't do this" to "I can't do this yet"? @nctm.org @mathedleaders.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social @elemmathchat.bsky.social @wearecta.bsky.social

Q9: How do you design math centers or collaborative games, I.e. GRIT Games, Kahoot, to ensure that every child feels their unique way of solving a problem is a valuable contribution to the group? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @nctm.org @mathedleaders.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social

Q8: If we want to cultivate grit, how must we change the way we assess "success" to ensure we are valuing the diverse ways students approach and represent their mathematical thinking? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mctm-mn.bsky.social @mathedleaders.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social @nctm.org

Q7: What role does collaborative work play in bridging the gap between representation and grit? Does working in groups help students feel more seen and supported? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social @nctm.org @mathedleaders.bsky.social

Q6: What are some low-stakes ways to introduce diverse mathematical voices into your daily lessons without making it feel like an "add-on" or a special event? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social @mathedleaders.bsky.social

Q6: Have you found specific types of "real-world" math problems that resonate more deeply with your students’ lived experiences and help them engage more deeply with challenging content? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @bsky.app @mnmmath.bsky.social

Q5: How does the physical environment of your classroom, I.e. posters, materials, and seating, influence the "gritty" culture you are trying to build? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social

Q4: How can we reframe the concept of "productive struggle" so that it feels empowering rather than punitive for students who have historically been marginalized in math spaces? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social

Q3: How do you handle the tension between encouraging "grit" and recognizing when a student is stuck because the curriculum itself fails to provide adequate representation or access? @elemmathchat.bsky.social @mnmmath.bsky.social

Q2: How does representation boost G.R.I.T. levels of students? What have you noticed? @mnmmath.bsky.social @elemmathchat.bsky.social

So Ed Chat fam @mnmmath.bsky.social ; What is the main problem regarding student engagement in the math classroom? Is it tests, instructional delivery, or relationships?
