Empowering Student Voices: K-12 Collaborative Discourse in a Thinking Classroom
Tuesday August 11, 2026 8:30am - 9:45am PDT
Rich discourse does not happen by accident; it requires intentional structural shifts that move students from passive compliance to active thinking. Grounded in Peter Liljedahl’s Building Thinking Classrooms® framework and aligned with the updated Washington State Standards, this interactive session explores how to cultivate a vibrant culture of collaborative discourse.

Educators will experience how combining research-based routines with standard-aligned tasks transforms classrooms into equitable spaces where every voice is leveraged to make sense of content.

Through hands-on participation, attendees will analyze how the structural pillars of a thinking classroom (such as random groups, vertical non-permanent surfaces (VNPS), and curated tasks) naturally elicit the communication demanded by the revised standards.

Figuring Out Fluency in the Math Standards
Tuesday August 11, 2026 10:00am - 11:15am PDT

True mathematical fluency requires more than speed and basic fact memorization. Grounded in the Figuring Out Fluency framework, this interactive session helps educators dismantle traditional approaches and build a shared foundation for deep mathematical sense-making. We will explore the three core pillars of fluency, efficiency, flexibility, and accuracy, and map out how to build student strategies before introducing formal procedures.

Math Fluency In Bloom - June 22 - 23, 2026 - Rochester Middle School ( LINK HERE )
