A2: Michael Serra is one of my heros...here is his version of yesterday's "what doesn't belong" michaelserra.net/files/ho.ones-… #mctmmath

Here is a link to the SBG material that I used last year in M234 drive.google.com/folderview?id=… #mctmmath

It's almost time for our #MTMSchat to start. Hope you are ready to chat! ow.ly/DqLk3038W4J #MTBoS #Math

Excited to participate in the first ever #MTMSchat - discussing the teaching and learning of "transformation"...how appropriate!

Here’s the quilt deck from “Quilt Block Symmetries”…hope that you might use it to transform your teaching drive.google.com/open?id=0B8gba… #MTMSchat

Matt Roscoe, teacher educator at University of Montana #mtmschat

Here's the FREE article from the August 2016 issue that is the focus of this #MTMSchat ow.ly/VBIR303ijkQ

Obviously I have used “Quilt Block Symmetries”…here is a link to the deck in the article: drive.google.com/open?id=0B8gba… #MTMSchat

A1: I have occasionally used transparency copies of paper figures so that students can perform flips, slides and rotations #mtmschat

A2: I try to connect transformation to coordinate geometry similar to Dr RRR #mtmschat

A2: One of my favorite questions that blurs the geometry/algebra line is the "Isis Problem" eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ869408 #mtmschat

A3: Students in our experimental groups really struggled to prove that there were only 7 quilt block "types" #mtmschat

A3: Tools like Miras and patty paper and transparencies seem to help student struggle productively #mtmschat

A3: Since it came up again, here is a link to the pre-made quilt deck in the article and blank quilt blocks drive.google.com/open?id=0B8gba…

A4: Curiosity is one way to motivate those who might otherwise be disinterested into "wanting to know" #mtmschat

A5: Analyze quilt blocks on coordinate plane by finding the equations for all lines in the block for different choices of origin. #mtmschat

Great chatting with you all. Once again here is a link to the deck for your use: drive.google.com/open?id=0B8gba… #mtmschat
