@howie_hua Either are better than saying “one over 21” Language matters. A fraction is 1 number, not 2 Helping students understand that 3/12 is actually three one-twelfths is key to thinking fractionally. We wouldn’t call 12 “one beside two” So we shouldn’t call 1/12 “one over twelve”

Rote memory fails. For. All. of. Us. Even more important, if all we do is rote memorize the facts, we lose the opportunity to use the facts to build reasoning. bit.ly/mathpcast #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathIsFigureOutAble #Elemmathchat #MSmathchat #HSmathchat #MathStratChat

I used to ask students to do both kinds of tasks. Not any more. What about you? #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathIsFigureOutAble #Elemmathchat #MSmathchat #HSmath

As I have been teaching online for a number of years now, I thought it might be useful to share some of my principles for active engagement. See more: youcubed.org/21st-century-t…

Pissed off by Trump’s Lysol “jokes”? That’s not just emotion, it’s mathematic equation at work. @darryldarryl_ explains:

Cross-multiplication is something you don't need, like you don't need a cart to carry a dolly. #TASMTalk

A kid fell asleep during a quiz. I encouraged him to wake up and work, but he refused. At the end of the day, he asked if he could finish the quiz tomorrow. At first, I thought ABSOLUTELY NOT, but then I remembered that second chances are more important than proving my point.

#ElemMathChat The most successful teachers we have studied are those that teach to big ideas instead of methods. Work out the big ideas in your grade, and for each one find rich, deep activities. The methods come out as you teach to big ideas, that give enduring understanding.
