Five practices for orchestrating productive mathematical discussions

During the 2 year OAME Grade 9 Applied Project many of the participants involved found the book 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematics Discussions (Smith & Stein, 2011) a valuable resource.

There are several ways to access the learning from the project:

• WATCH the 5 Practices Plenary presentation from the 2016 OAME Grade 9 Applied Summer Institute
• WATCH teachers describe how they have used the 5 Practices
• Access RESOURCES related to the 5 Practices
• Access RICH TASKS that some of the participants used in their classrooms
