99. How can we encourage a love of math in students? with Laura Overdeck

While math has never seemed to be the most popular subject, students are increasingly falling behind nationwide. Research shows student scores have dropped since the pandemic, especially in math. Are teachers equipped to help students not only understand math, but excel at it? What makes math difficult for so many students? And how can we reframe the subject for students and encourage a love of math?   In this episode, Kevin discusses how we can reframe the narrative around math with the founder and president of Bedtime Math Foundation, Laura Overdeck.   This is, What I Want to Know.   Join the conversation using #WIWTK on social media and be sure to leave a review!
