A bit later in algebra 2 students counted the number of male & female bees & expressed as a sequence...next term 12 or 13? They settled on 13 & described it as next term = sum of two before it - then an AHA “it’s just like MATHia” Carnegie Learning value incorrect responses
Awesome things going on at Riverside MS. 6th grade teachers are helping students stay accountable in MATHia by giving goals for progress through their workspaces. Watching a class of 45 6th graders working hard! Pizza party challenge is on!!! #longlivemath Valerie Muller
I finally got a chance to read this blog! Thank you for honoring the work and being a part of ClearTheAirEdu community, Robert Kaplinsky! ✊🏾 Check out what I saw on Robert Kaplinsky's site: robertkaplinsky.com/how-i-began-to…
Mrs. April Haynes Kitab Sathi So excited for us to discuss the importance of the math related to horizontal translations of linear functions - new ways to think about the x-intercept. We are building a district-wide PLC around CL lessons - at long last, a common, rigorous 🧵 Carnegie Learning

Math theme for week has been supports for students - shared solving equations with double # lines with middle & high school folks. Opened my Mine the Gap grades 6-8 expressions, Equations & Functions chapter; double # line strategy for this equation-WORKS Carnegie Learning

Sixth graders modeling algebraic expressions with fractions with algebra tiles in Ms. Elmore’s class & algebra 2 teacher in my group exclaimed “my kids can’t do this” - exemplary math class #woodmontrising Carnegie Learning #woodmontcool
Ms. Elmore exemplifies the “do the math” theory of action and learning targets. Her anchor charts are the amazing and she referenced the current work w/algebraic expressions to the work in August w/ distributive property in lesson closure #woodmontrising Carnegie Learning
Oh my - card sorts, sample spaces and systems of equations w/cost, income & break-even point, profit functions. Students wrestling with rigorous mathematics all day long - thank you WMS math folks for opening your classrooms to GATE crew #woodmontrising Carnegie Learning
