“Recovery strategies must go beyond remediation and test preparation to reshape students' day-to-day mathematical experiences and the conditions for teachers to provide them.” Intentional strategies to support students engaging in low floor, high ceiling tasks- so important!
With only 22% of seniors at or above NAEP Proficient and 45% below Basic, we must pivot to engaging all students in meaningful, real-world mathematics-backed by teacher support and system-level change. Read the latest news release: https://t.co/r3R0YrO2Au

If there’s a skill or knowledge that must be retained over time, then that content needs to be periodically revisited in meaningful ways. Students Won’t Always Remember What They’ve Learned. Here's How to Help. https://t.co/gLcGi885bG

Kids will forget things, but understanding how they best learn new information can help them retain it and build new knowledge.

Have you played Prime Climb? Dan Finkel's game is great! So many mathematical connections and really beautiful too. For younger kids, check out his Polka Dots games. My grandkids are almost old enough! https://t.co/Hf6FfEgD1T

As a student and far too long as a teacher, I thought math was about rotely memorizing a disconnected set of facts and mimicking rules and procedures. I now know that reasoning mathematically should be the goal of math class https://t.co/aOpm9EjyBl

This progression video from Graham Fletcher made me realize that I never REALLY understood division as a kid. I was just a good robot who could repeat the steps my teacher gave me. Now I understand it so much better. Check it out here: https://t.co/7fLVwr8sOj
