Mathematicians don't want you to know this trick but you can literally prove any equation true by multiplying both sides by 0.

Today, I told my students "Here's how I'm going to grade your tests: I look at it, tell you what to fix, you fix it, and I'll give you an A. We're in a pandemic. Life is stressful as it is, and my goal isn't to stress you out even more."

Would you want a teacher to say that the only way to do 999+999 is to "carry the 1" multiple times when it may make more sense to just "give 1 to the other number" to make it 1000+998? Making tens is important in building number sense.

If you're subtracting from a number with a lot of 0s, subtract one from both numbers so you don't have to "borrow."

For tests, I dedicate the first 5 minutes to have students hold the tests and talk to their group about strategies (w/out pencils). This lowers their test anxiety AND when you walk around, you hear some of the richest math conversations.

1. I will honor your thinking.
2. I will be approachable and accessible.
3. By the end of this course, I will show you that you are good at math.

It's been a while since in-person exams for me so I'm really excited to do Test Talks again.
For the first 5 minutes of the exam, students talk w/ each other while looking at the exam w/out writing utensils. So many benefits including lowered test anxiety and rich conversations.

Whenever students are silent after I ask a question, it could mean a couple things, so I follow it up with asking "Are we silent because we're too shy to answer, we don't know, or we need more time to think?"
