Almost every teacher wants their classroom to be a place where discussion amongst students thrives. Yet the reality is, unfortunately, that classrooms do not always live up to that vision of what they can be in terms of academic, purposeful discussion on a regular basis. Today’s conversation is with Matt Kay, a veteran teacher and coach and also the author of a book on this subject: Prompting Deeper Discussions: A Teacher’s Guide to Crafting Great Questions. In this conversation, Matt shares more about the urgency within this present moment to elevate what discussions look like in our classroom along with reflections on his own experiences as a coach, teacher and leader.
