How did you count the shapes? . What fraction of the shapes are blue? . What fraction of the shapes have right angles? . #math #activelearning #elementary

These two students made some major breakthroughs today…and wearing a hat in class helped a lot more than it hurt. #elementarymath #GrowthMindset

Student approved. Reconfiguring the standard algorithm to bridge into a conceptual model. #cgimath #math

But who’s counting? #math

Calipers are incredibly dynamic compared to using just a ruler. Students can measure depth and diameter as well as length. Great for line plotting. Amazon has a class set for elementary students. #math #mathtools

Met a lot of great teachers and specialists during my session. The Seattle Convention Center tech crew deserves credit for making everything run smooth! @NCTM #nctmsea2024 #math

Checking out my room getting staged for NCTM Seattle. Can’t wait! Natural Math Thinking. Thursday 1-2, Room 617. @NCTM #nctmsea2024

Join my session and solve all your math problems in 60 minutes. Maybe. #nctmsea24 .@nctm #math #cgimath

Who needs a book anyway? #thinkingclassrooms #cgi #math

4th grade Ss using calipers to measure different objects to line plot to nearest 1/4 inch. Calipers are easy to use and give much more flexibility than a ruler. #math

Maybe I shouldn’t have included “Army Guys” as part of #countingcollections #elementarymath #cgimath

Music before math. I like to set the mood with a rhythmic tempo from time to time to activate the brains natural tendency to count and predict patterns. Student Approved🎖️#math

This was fun. #fractions #math #cgimath

Someone had to do it. #maths @cgiconference

Best conference I have been able to speak at @CAMathCouncil #cmcs2023 Palm Springs. Each session was powerful and clear that change is here. Students drive our instruction. We don’t drive them.

I’m excited to share that I’m coming back to CMC South & presenting on “The Textless Classroom.” Come learn how to ditch the textbook and get students thinking. @CAMathCouncil #CMCSouth #CMC2023
