As we rethink the role that homework is playing in our students' learning, we should look at new ways to have our students practice their learning rather than just a set of practice problems each night.
One idea to consider is a math reflection question for the students to respond to. Building their metacognition through these written responses has proven to build better mathematical thinkers.
You might decide to have a menu of questions for students to answer, or you might begin by having them all answer the same question--whatever works best for your students.
Click below to a link of some potential questions. Reflecting on these ideas each day will help to build the types of thinkers we hope to cultivate.
