You don’t need a full-on classroom overhaul to start seeing change. In this episode, we’re talking about the “pebbles” — those small irritations or roadblocks in math class — and how you can start removing them with intentional, doable steps.

🎙️ Episode Overview

In this episode, Jon and Kyle chat about what’s really getting in the way of change in the classroom. You’ll learn how to identify your “pebbles,” what steps you can take to shift your teaching, and why your system might be working exactly as it’s designed — for better or worse.

Whether you’re a seasoned teacher or just starting out, this conversation will leave you feeling reflective and ready to make meaningful tweaks in your teaching journey.
