Do you have students working at vertical white board space around your classroom rather than at their seats? While the basis of Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) and the work of Peter Liljedahl is from math classrooms these ideas can be put in place in all content areas. During this session we will briefly discuss the pedagogy behind vertical collaboration, visibly random grouping, look at online options for pre-made resources, and then spend time collaborating and designing a lesson to take back to your classroom.
