docs.google.com/a/nvusd.org/document/d/1Ij5T7JRGOyZ8YNRBP8TP_els8vFthbl4jmOCKQHdDzo/edit?usp=sharing This the data survey I will use to gauge student understanding. This pretest link is to Chapter 04 of the 6th grade textbook. I will use this test as a pre-survey treatment, I will change the questions, but keep the standards the same to assess the students post PrBL. I will also develop a student survey that reflects how students perceived their learning of the subject matter.

Her ideas around how all people learn math continues to change the landscape of teaching. One of her key ideas that all learners maintain a growth mindset, and accept that math needs to be challenging in order for deep learning to occur. Not only does she lead research in how teaching math is important, she also gives a multitude of resources for educators to implement immediately in the classroom.

I agree! Jo Boaler's idea of Growth Mindset is a must read!! I have used many of her resources in the classroom.

After checking out the youcubed website, I really like the way how it help students build connection to different mathematical ideas. In P.E., I also use similar strategies to help build students athletic skills to particular sport. The questions are also useful in my subject. One that stood out is "What role should student errors play in my teaching?" Reflecting back and getting feedback from colleagues and students has helped me create a productive lesson plan for class. What are some growth mindset tools do you find useful in your teaching?
