Math is so beautiful....Think of it... For any number, we have so many ways to represent it...

Just because Ss are not successful at a task does not mean that they do not have the skills/knowledge needed. Maybe we need to ask different questions and/or present the task differently for these Ss to engage and show the thinking, knowledge, and skills we want to see.

The best classroom management strategy is student engagement.

If you want to better support your multilingual learners, take the time to get to know them beyond the country they come from and the language they speak.

I asked husband to cut up veggies for a salad. I just thought he would do it like I do... Uneven pieces all thrown in a bowl. This is what I found when I got home.🤣 Notice spacing of the plates & uniform pieces. Very mathematical PS He is an operations research engineer...

Great way to explore concrete algebraic representations with large Concept Circles!

I had a wonderful time sharing with HWDSB secondary MLL teachers! Thanks so much for all the work you do for MLLs!

Need to teach our students how to slow down their thinking. Good thinkers take time to edit, think about their thinking, redo, plan next steps, etc. So many students hold the misconception that that effective thinking = speed.

Fractions represented auditorily, visually, and through movement🥰 x.com/gunsnrosesgirl…

Honoured to work with schools in York Region District over the course of this year. We learn, return to the classroom & try things out, then return to discuss, learn more & then repeat! Best way for professional learning; ongoing & connected to real-life classroom practice.

Part-whole reasoning with double concept circle: If the cusenaire in the middle circle represents 1/2, represent each fractional value written on the sticky notes in two different ways.

I am busy prepping my online session for May 29th for Math for America ! Can't wait to learn with some wonderful educators!!

Word problems are not problems. They are texts that describe the context of problems. Reading for meaning is key. Once we understand the text, can paraphrase the text, visualize the text...Then, only then, can we begin to actually solve the problem that the text describes.

Need to teach our students how to pause, think about the problem, and jot down some ideas BEFORE solving it. Life seems to be all about rushing....Getting somewhere/something quickly. I believe students (and adults) do not truly understand The Power of the Pause.

Math anxiety can begin with an external event, but it is maintained and encouraged in silence by self-talk which is rarely discussed (or heard). Need to foster more opportunities to model and explore the power of self-talk through mathematical think-alouds.
