Jennifer A. Lenhardt - Common Denominators: Cultivating Engagement and Belonging in Secondary Mathematics. This is episode 712 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
Jennifer Lenhardt (she/her) is all-in for the whole-human experiences of students, teachers, and leaders. Whether at work, in her writing, or a coffee-chat, she seeks to integrate her experiences as a teacher and research interest in equity and culturally responsive teaching.
As a mathematics intervention teacher at a middle school, she worked collaboratively with educators across the district to launch and refine approaches to Tier 3 interventions and to support multilingual mathematics learners. Jennifer's education and passion are focused on the teachers and educational leaders of middle and high school students for whom learning mathematics is yet to be a source of joy, inspiration, or belonging.
Through ongoing analysis of factors that affect the development of students’ and teachers’ multiple and intersecting identities, Lenhardt seeks to describe how we can better understand our lived experiences in and out of school and create the spaces necessary for flourishing.
Our focus will be Jennifer’s book - Common Denominators: Cultivating Engagement and Belonging in Secondary Mathematics
Excellent book!
What a great talk!
So much to learn.

Writing in a Journal: Having a Conversation with You.
This is episode 711 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
When I was in the National Guard and US Army Reserve we used after action reports to help improve our unit's performance. We talked about what happened, what could have been better, and what we would do to accomplish more. We used those reports and the conversations to help improve the success of the unit.
When I was a high school principal A colleague suggested that I start using journaling to help me problem solve. He was right. It was amazing what having a conversation with myself at the end of the workday did for me. It helped work through challenges and create better solutions. I still have conversations with myself through journaling. I focus on asking these three questions:
1. What happened?
2. What went right and what went wrong?
3. What would I do differently next time?
Try journaling to help you become better at working through challenges. You won't regret it.
