Thanks for the question, Andrea. It was provocative enough that I built a new post around it.

Dan Meyer,

Good evening. Thank you for the ideas presented in “Delete the Textbook “. Our elementary school district would like our teachers to receive this information and enhance our lessons in an effort to reach and teach all students.

As the speaker at the NCTM conference on this topic, will you please give me the Top 3 pieces of advice you have for the teachers of our youngest learners? We are K-6 and want to start now.

Thank you for your time and inspiration.

The results were amazing. I recorded the lesson so that I may go back and review student responses, participation and engagement. I can only say how sorry I am that I didn’t start this sooner. The students took their collaboration and thinking to levels that some would have said were unreachable. I am now an instructional coordinator and have demonstrated lessons with this technique in grades 2-5. Success every time! The teachers are amazed with the student engagement and their buy in is solidified once I show them how easy it is to put together. Thank you.

Denis Sheeran sees relevance in the bottle flipping but “relevance” is a term that’s really hard to define and even harder to design lessons around. If you turn your back on relevance for a second, […]

Thanks!
