This is, in my opinion, one of the most important skills in elementary math

In his TedEx, Dan Finkel brings the message home that we can and should be inviting thinking into the math we do at home and at school. 92% of you will love his talk! (Watch it to find why I use that percentage 😀) na2.hubs.ly/y0XvQP0 #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS

Some Great Quotes - they say about basketball, but probably apply to most things. coachingtoolbox.net/filingcabinet/…

Love this advice - Use what you know to figure our what you do not know yet! Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling use the terms Foundational Facts (the ones you know) and Derived Facts (the ones you still have to figure out)

How can a rectangle help us with division?

I like the partial quotient method as well - especially because as stated - it supports students using appropriate place value language rather than digit language. This is so important at the elementary age students that I work with in a K-4 school.

It's Mental Math Monday with the creator of @Wipebook Frank Bouchard! Frank wants to know how you would mentally calculate the area of a Wipebook: 24"×36"

🔹”When we don’t consolidate the lesson, when we don’t bring order to the chaos, the ideas/emergent thoughts, float away” 🔹”We’re after transfer of collective knowing & doing to individual knowing & doing” @pgliljedahl #NCTM23

It's so powerful to see kids make sense of math by using color to make connections and after this routine and discussion, the transfer to their subsequent work was awesome to see! So many connections and ideas! #JoyinMath #LearnwithIM

It's Mental Math Monday. How would you mentally calculate 3×4×5×6?

Moving teacher talk to the end of the lesson is something we are working on. Had not seen this graph before - I will share with our teachers. Love this book!

One of my all-time favorite problems (that spans grade levels and even gets adults thinking) is from Extending Children's Mathematics: 4 people want to share 10 cookies so everyone gets the same amount. How much cookie does each person get? I dare you to try it K-6

If you're subtracting from a number with a lot of 0s, subtract one from both numbers so you don't have to "borrow."
