Number Talks/Math Talks can be a great way to engage students in mathematical discourse -- that allows their thinking to be made visible. In order to get all students to want to participate, establishing and maintaining social norms that allow students to feel safe is critical.
"To create a classroom where students feel safe enough to challenge each other - and us - is to give them an enormous gift" - Alfie Kohn

Some of the talk moves we started to use in our conversations include:
Elaborating (Adding on)
Revoicing - repeat an idea
Asking clarifying questions
Agreeing or disagreeing because...
Justifing and providing examples and counter examples
