If my years watching (and rewatching) Glee! taught me anything it is that I can't resist a good mashup! 🎶 So when @jennalaib shared her latest Slow Reveal Graph, I had to combine two of my favorite math activity structures. #mtbos kgmathminds.com/2025/11/23/s…

The posters were so great and led to some great convos as well! It would be so interesting to hear discussions about their pre-unit ides as they add to them at the end of the unit.

I am always here for upcycling manipulatives! I was playing around with cutting and rearranging to show doubling and halving! Not as exciting with 5x10, but other dimensions could be fun as they cut and rearranged the parts!

I spent way too long estimating these fractions on a number line and students absolutely loved it! So much fun! Check it out if you are a 3-5 teacher! teacher.desmos.com/activityb… #mtbos

From the little dots in the rectangle it looks like counting by ones? @mpershan this reminds me of the problem string we made based on your students' multiplication work.

I love having too much amazing student work to write about! So, while I was waiting for the new Fortnite season update to finish, I checked one of them off!:) kgmathminds.com/2023/12/03/s… #mtbos

And the world of division followed into 5th grade w/division of whole numbers and unit fractions. A couple students finished quickly so I asked what they think is always true about this division ....

Love this so much! I was in 4th grade this morning and also had some playfulness that I loved! Ss were completing 16/3=___x___ and asked if they could write division equations also ...um, of course!

When you try out a new 4th grade fraction lesson in desmos, ask students for feedback at the end, and you find this picture in the dashboard. 😍 They are just the best. cc: @mrscphillips72
