What if our job as educators was to relentlessly pursue opportunities for optimal experiences, best moments, and flow in our classrooms? What if we could give our students an interesting story, a problem worth thinking about, and the tools to engage deeply with others to try to solve it? What if we could build classrooms where we could regularly experience the joy of productive struggle, of deep thinking, and of persevering with a challenging problem with all our students? Peter Liljedahl's Thinking Classroom framework builds a community of thinkers and learners who thrive by working together to engage in challenging tasks. Come experience a Thinking Classroom in action featuring my favourite Big Beautiful Math Problem that can be explored by all ages.
