Promote students’ discussion—open ended questions: Why do you think that? How do you know? Make explicit connections—pictures, concrete materials, role playing, and multiple representations. Avoid instruction focused on a teaching a single correct approach to arrive at a single correct answer. The research message is strong—Teach for meaning initially, or risk never getting students beyond a superficial understanding that leaves them unprepared to apply their learning.
