☑️ CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING! Highly recommend the book ‘Explicit Direct Instruction (EDI)’ by Hollingsworth, and Ybarra. The ‘TAPPLE’ acronym they introduce is ingenious for memorising their steps for Checking for Understanding. Take a look at this visual breakdown...

14-year-old Aaryan Shukla from India, last month broke the world record for the Fastest time to mentally add 100 four-digit numbers - 30.9 sec
Leaves you dazed & bewildered.
Congratulations Aaryan!
I’ve seen some videos before of kids using this technique where the hands are used, in some way, to aid calculation.
I’m sure Aaryan has a special gift beyond the ordinary, but are there any sites which give a primer on the fundamentals of this technique?
I’m not looking to break any world record. Maybe I can use it for some simple, daily business calculations! 🙂

Psychological safety is not about withholding criticism. It’s about enabling people to speak up without fear.
The goal is not to lower our standards. It’s to replace knee-jerk reactions with open-minded consideration.
All ideas are welcome. Not all views are equally valid.

Young children can use a math lens to understand the nature around them, which thereby provides a real-world application for concepts that might otherwise be abstract. @edutopia

From educator Gwen Blumberg: “Whose voices are heard the most in our classrooms? Teacher voices? Kid voices? The same kid voices? Talk is an art & we can teach kids to grow this skill like any other.
I keep coming back to the progression of talk shared by Cynthia Satterlee at The Teachers College Reading & Writing Project reunion & the importance of lifting the level of student talk. I remade her graphic and added a few talk prompts to help make this a teacher scaffold & hopefully a kid tool.
Building off the work of: Katy Wishow, Shana Frazin, Donna Santman, & Gaby Layden."

ALT For Young Kids, The Power of Play-Based Learning. New research shows play-based learning can be more effective than direct instruction at improving outcomes for early learners—particularly in the development of mathematical and spatial skills. Colorful illustration of a child wearing a cape, flying like a superhero. There are colorful waves coming out of the cape. Some of the waves act as a "floor" for other children, who are running, sliding, reading, climbing, and playing.
