"Most upper-elementary, middle, and secondary students talk to perform right answers in math class, meaning most older students hardly talk at all in math class and don't learn much math because we talk to learn. In Rough Draft Math, Amanda Jansen shares the power of infusing math class with the spirit of revision. She shares the work she and teacher-collaborators have done to teach students how to share their rough ideas, knowing they can change them later"-- Provided by publisher.
