Closing the Critical Thinking Gap

Presenter: Ashley Rea - Fredericksburg City Schools

Grade band: 6 - 8

Creating a world where critical thinking is no longer a luxury good requires educators to recognize the inherent critical thinking potential of all students. In this session, we will explore ways math teachers can provide purposeful critical thinking opportunities in their daily instruction. As educators, it is our duty to help students develop critical thinking skills so they can apply them consistently throughout life, academics, and careers.
