This episode is all about teaching square root numbers conceptually.  The idea is that doing so will promote mathematical literacy in your students, improve retention, and help develop problem-solving abilities in your students.

In the podcast episode we will discuss how to introduce five key conceptual ideas and then use those throughout the procedural development of students.  By using the concepts to initiate a procedure, and then to validate a result, students develop deep conceptual understanding.
