Maths inquiry


 Maths inquiry is a set of norms in a maths class that good mathematicians do. Chn are given differentiated questions to solve first by themselves and then as a group. Chn are encouraged to questions and justify their responsive through friendly arguments. This promotes sharing strategies and low-level learners are exposed to high level thinking strategies.

The first step to implement this is to encourage discourse with groups through different talk moves e.g. can you prove it? Can you explain how you got?
