Sorting, counting, arrays, multiplying, place value, and efficient strategy conversations for the Mosca children today. It's amazing how motivating $$ can be - I didn't interfere or offer suggestions at all, I swear! 馃槉 #proudmathmom
Today we saw how @IllustrateMath instructional routines allowed students of all backgrounds and abilities to access rigorous math learning today across K-12. Pictured: deep conversations/debates over a card sort, grade 4.
On learning walks at the high school- the elementary math coordinator loved seeing the SAME routines and structures in 9-12 that her teachers are using K-4: notice/wonder, card sorts, group work, student voice. #IMK12 @IllustrateMath
Algebra 1 students worked together through an activity during one of our 1st classes. Afterwards, we discussed quality group work and set class norms based on their experience #1st2days
From 5 years ago my daughter was in K, and made this all on her own. She called it "a growing pattern." It's just amazing the mathematics that kids can discover when given the chance to play and be creative. Still proud! #proudmathteachermom #letthekids #becurious
I could write a whole math course on this project... Costs, planning, surveyed the yard, trig to design outriggers, flow estimates from the hose, volume (for an uneven bottom! So fun!), lights length, temps, ice thickness rates... Not sure how to calculate the fun, though 鉂勶笍
