ReviewsGetting students to explain their reasoning in math class has been a struggle because they often restate the steps they took rather than convince others that their strategy makes sense. This is why the actionable steps and stories in Up for Debate! are so inspiring. Chris created a very readable book that helped me see how students could passionately convince others that their reasoning is correct. Secondary math teachers are going to love this short book that's filled with ideas to give them the classroom they've been hoping for., Getting students to explain their reasoning in math class has been a struggle because they often restate the steps they took rather than convince others that their strategy makes sense.
