@FractionTalks Great news thanks

Looks like @FractionTalks was offline for a bit after some site updates. All good now (it seems) https://t.co/CFRxzvJmGz

I’ve added the learning journal to guide students as they capture their learning. @pgliljedahl @MathforLove @MrValencia24 @KirstDy @davidporas @davidpetro314 @pamseda1 @FractionTalks @BurdessAlicia @mic_epstein @shskaercher @d_martin05 @Trianglemancsd https://t.co/28vLVtjj4S

How many ways can you show one quarter? Gr 7 Ss @LeslieThomasSch used a fraction square to shade 1/4 as many different ways as they could. One question that led to lots of rich conversations. #HRCEMath @FractionTalks

Or this one ft. @FractionTalks

I’m using this one today in my summer school class, @BerkeleyEverett! It’s a perfect progression from the @FractionTalks we used on Monday (shown below).

@fawnpnguyen @BerkeleyEverett @Simon_Gregg I do love having kids create! I will also say that I tend to use this as a number talk/@FractionTalks pretty early on in the Gr 4 fraction work, and it really brings out some important ideas around unit fractions and equivalence. But a different purpose than your original tweet!

.@Fractiontalks #fractiontalks Hundreds of options where that came from.

Looking up at this roof... Could be another image to ask How many? #unitchat

Looks like a natural @FractionTalks image to me

@MarieMcMB @FractionTalks is literally my next stop after the physical tangrams. So great for reasoning! ...and yes, some students want a strategy that works every time. I like hearing all strategies and comparing, noticing, generalizing...😍

You can use any other blocks you want, as long as your triangle includes those three. Incidentally, these blocks are on a pretty great sale on Amazon right now! https://t.co/RCp1fATImb

Here's an interesting #UpscalePB challenge I just stumbled across: what's the minimum number of blocks it takes to make a triangle using all three sizes of triangle block? Here's a polypad version of the problem @MathigonOrg #iteachmath #mtbos https://t.co/lW2FDuonpj

Question(s) for the #fractiontalks community: When you started using the images, what big questions did you have? What do you know now that would help someone starting out? What “pro-tips” do you have to share? #MTBoS #iteachmath #fractiontalk

#fractiontalks

Plenty of these (plus some teacher tips) where @alicekeeler found this: https://t.co/2v759bV5iM or @FractionTalks #Mtbos #iteachmath
