Our session focuses on the use of rehearsals, a space of decreased complexity within professional learning to try out pedagogical moves. We share four teachers, from grades 6-11, who rehearsed mathematical language routines (MLRs), specifically the MLR Collect & Display, during Studio Day professional learning. During our session, we will provide an overview of Collect & Display and the use of rehearsals before sharing teachers’ rehearsals of Collect & Display and how the use of these rehearsals allowed teachers to work in community to catalyze their instruction through sharing instruction, reflecting on that instruction, and continuing to revise that instruction.
