Have you ever had a student who when asked to explain their thinking simply says, “I just knew it” or “I just did the math”? We want our students to be able to go deeper and say more than this. We want them to share HOW they knew it and WHAT math they did.
In this episode, we take a closer look at Math Practice 6: Attend to precision, and explore how it goes far beyond correctness. You’ll hear how precision in language, symbols, and structure supports deeper understanding, and why developing this skill is just as important for life as it is for math class.
We’ll also unpack how to help students refine their thinking out loud, use vocabulary in context (not just memorize it), and make thoughtful decisions about when precision really matters. Whether you're introducing new math language or helping students rethink the equal sign, this episode will challenge what you thought you knew about “being precise.”
