-a gathering space in the classroom for whole group discussion provides opportunities for restorative/community circles, math congress, etc. 

-co-created wall space (this is not a place to just post pretty pictures, it should be purposeful)

-a big idea that goes across subjects helps create richer discussion in your classroom and digital classrooms

-model excitement and curiosity for our students

-celebrate mistake making

-We need to remember not only to teach 5 strands of mathematics but also the 7 mathematical processes in conjunction with this.

-Identify which of the four roles/categories of the"literacy learner" each of your students falls into.

-co plan the learning environment so that the space is truly "for everyone" and everyone is equally responsible for keeping the space clean, safe and encouraging towards a sense of wonder
