I stand by the fact that there is a massive problem in education that we seem to keep ignoring. As constructed RtI / MTSS do not have a data based record of success. My thoughts in @edutopia -- please read (and share) if you feel worthwhile

‘I don’t have anywhere to put VNPs in a science lab.’ ‘My kids can’t handle algebra tiles.’

Eighth graders rocking algebra tiles in a science lab!

Informal results of poll taken during Back to School Night:
100% of 6th graders like math
0% of parents like math

When do crush students’ love for math? How can we prevent them from growing into adults that dislike math?

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

As I math educator, I hear a lot of “THESE kids CAN’T!”

Here are the results of number strings in 6th grade with fractions and decimals. Whoa! OUR kids CAN!

Let’s give them the opportunity!

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

One day I was doing a Pam Harris challenge and wondering how to change math for juniors .. Then I wondered how we could make an impact before students’ last year of math in high school.

Today was my 1st day as a 6th grade teacher @ RESA! I am so excited for this opportunity.

This one goes out to anyone out there who still finds it hard to believe that mindset & math ability are connected. They absolutely are, and @joboaler explains why‼️🧠 #mtbos #iteachmath

[Pam Harris @pwharris]

What's the difference between Place Value and Place Labeling?

Most of what I see that claims to help student develop Place Value is actually all about labeling places.

Here's an example.

Your thoughts?

[vanessa vakharia @TheMathGuru]

It’s weird to me that people are SO MAD about trying a NEW strategy to improve an OLD system that clearly isn’t working for *most* students. Like why not just give it a try & see if it’s better than what we have now?! #MTBoS #mathematics

@Boggseys @CPMmath I so wish I could use this as a resource!!!

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

Everyone needs to listen, not just math teachers!!

[vanessa vakharia @TheMathGuru]

Sooo many mic drops in this episode I can’t even keep up 🫳🎤

Thank for the opportunity to learn with Peter!

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

Takeaways- We know better - Let’s do better! We can add to subtract. #ChangeMathClass

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

Biggest Takeaway - SUBTRACTION is what is holding us back! #ChangeMathClass

[Sarah Watson @DunlapSarahe]

@SchrankCory Awesome!!!!!
