True or false: The spelling of every whole number shares at least one letter with the spelling of the next whole number. How might your students prove it one way or the other? #iteachmath

9 times 9 is 81, and 10 times 8 is 80. 12 times 12 is 144, and 13 times 11 is 143. 5 times 5 is 25, and 6 times 4 is 24. 20 times 20 is 400, so what's 21 times 19? can you explain why this is happening, without using algebra? (i mean, go ahead with the algebra, if you insist)

I love this context for introducing Least Common Multiple to students. How many hot dogs and buns should Steve Martin buy? bit.ly/2i8Pww5 #iteachmath

A5 One tool I use on the Substitution level of SAMR is OneNote. Students can take note in a digital form, then access it from any internet-connected device. #UbD @JoMcFadden448
A4 When planning #UbD units, technology integration is an important consideration. There are 4 levels of integrating technology: Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition. Whichever level we are using, the goal is to increase student achievement. @JoMcFadden448
A3 #PerformanceTasks provide a tangible product or performance as proof of learning. @JoMcFadden448 Here's what I'm going to try for my #UbD unit.
A2 When planning lessons using #UbD, teachers need to consider the #6facetsoflearning to help facilitate #transfer. For more information: youtu.be/5MvqpVj2HCc @JoMcFadden448
A1 #UbD is a method of planning instruction by starting with the end result and working backward to plan assessment, then the instruction to meet your assessment. jaymctighe.com/wp-content/up… @JoMcFadden448
