it comes to life. And that's how Number Talks can really make a
difference."-Ruth Parker and Cathy Humphreys. How teachers react to
wrong answers and mistakes makes all the difference in mathematics

on-the-spot decisions, continually advancing and deepening the
conversation. Personal and accessible, this book highlights: The

tricky, problematic, or just plain hard exchanges in the classroom
How to more effectively use wait time during Number Talks The
importance of creating a safe learning environment How to nudge
students to think more flexibly without directing their thinking
