4. Class question:
“You have pennies, nickels and dimes in front of you. If you pick any three coins, how many different totals can you make?”
Think about the mathematics involved, possible solutions, and misconceptions that might occur. (quietly 1-2 minutes)

5. Discussion prompt 1 :
At your tables Identify questions from Deborah, and sort the questions according to PURPOSE (i.e. “ to get the students to ___” ).
We will briefly summarize our group discussions at about 11:35. (About 12 minutes discussion).

6. The purpose of questions:

Link each “move” to a specific consequence in the mathematical thinking / discourse of students. (about 6-7 minutes).

8. Other teacher moves:
