We had a blast playing a variety of #Hootenanny games thanks to @Tryazon!

Amazing things are happening in Mrs. Nichols’s 5th grade classroom—interactive coordinate grids & student friendly proficiency scales are keeping her students engaged & focused on their learning success criteria. @WatwoodElem @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @OMIALSDE

We had so much fun at our #BubbleLick @Tryazon party! #Bubbletreats #Tastethefun

Mrs. Nichols’ 5th graders applied their knowledge of set models to find 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, or 1/8 of their collections. They also participated in a gallery walk to critique the reasoning of others. @WatwoodElem @AMSTI_UM @AMSTI4all @OMIALSDE @Alison_Nichols7

Mrs. Ingram’s 4th graders found the fractional value of their collection of cuisenaire rods during counting collections. @WatwoodElem @AMSTI_UM @AMSTI4all

These 5th graders enjoyed using the Frayer Model from the Math In Practice book to represent multiplying a fraction by a whole number with area models, number lines, and addition/multiplication equations. @Alison_Nichols7 @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @SueOConnellMath @WatwoodElem

Ms. Holmes’ kindergarten students acted out putting together story problems with their partners using cubes & part-part whole plates. @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem

After a mini lesson, Ms. Haynie’s kindergarteners used a Show It 3 Ways graphic organizer to solve addition problems with their partners. @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem

Mrs. Nichols’ classes are applying their knowledge of fractions as division with the Sharing Brownies Task! @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem

Check out these kindergartners doing an image talk with Mrs. Harris and using part-part-whole plates to solve putting together addition problems with their partners! @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem

Fractions Counting Collections with cuisenaire rods—5th grade students estimated then counted their collections and constructed number lines for their mixed numbers. @Alison_Nichols7 @WatwoodElem

I wrote it. I’ve been writing them as needed for K-5 choral counts. I probably should start putting them into a doc for future reference.

These 5th graders are using fraction tiles to construct number lines to add fractions with unlike denominators. I enjoyed modeling this mini lesson in @Alison_Nichols7’s class! @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem

@WatwoodElem Kindergarteners rocked their Image Talk & Choral Count last week! @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM

These 3rd graders are building their multiplicative understanding through choral counting & counting collections. During the collections debrief on Friday we identified properties that were used as they counted their collections multiplicatively. @clayton3rd @AMSTI_UM @AMSTI4all

These 3rd graders are able to use precise mathematical vocabulary to justify & explain to their math partner which multiplication fact card matches each distributive property card. @clayton3rd @AMSTI4all @AMSTI_UM @WatwoodElem
