Episode description

If there's one thing that often comes up in teachers' conversations, it's standardized tests. And Pam and Kim are not afraid to tackle the tough conversations! In this episode Pam asks Kim about her experience with standardized tests, and how teaching Real Math helped Kim's students to succeed. Also don't forget to send in questions for our special 50th episode! We're so excited!
Talking Points:

  • Can students succeed on tests if all they know is Real Math?
  • Everyone, in every demographic, can learn more Real Math than fake math.
  • How much time do students need to prepare for tests? 
  • Suggestions for test prep.
  • How teachers view the test and their actions speak loudly
  • It's all about "know your content, know your kids".
