Abstract: Teaching math responsively often requires that teachers develop new visions of high-quality instruction as well instructional practices (Munter & Correnti, 2017). Recently, mathematics educators have emphasized the need to pay more attention to the relational aspects of teaching and students’ experience of responsive or ambitious instruction (Battey, 2013; Sikorski, 2015). This qualitative study explores what teachers and leaders learn from engaging as learners to solve challenging mathematics problems in a facilitated community of practice. Our study suggests that teachers can draw on their personal learning experiences to identify with their own students as learners and articulate more inclusive instructional practices.
