At first I just laughed. Then I thought....shouldn't we kinda teach math like this? The struggle is real and important! @KJoliverMath @BSchjolinLCPS @LCPS_Math
Math 7: Keep both sides of an equation equal. A student says "Oh! Like Left Twix and Right Twix! They think they are different but they are really the same!" Guess what videos I am showing with equations now? ๐๐๐ค @KJoliverMath @BSchjolinLCPS@Smarts_Mill @LCPS_Math
ABMS 7th grade math students arenโt given practical situations; they write their own! Check out their functions posters modeling verbal descriptions, tables, graphs and equations-WOW! @fcpsk12@ABMSPrincipal @scnoel22 @MandyPeterson76 @juliette_myers
Math 7 students are asked to give an example of an expression. One serious student exclaims "Ahhhhhh!!!!!" ๐คฃ๐๐ค @KJoliverMath @BSchjolinLCPS @MarthaJones20 @cstine@glgensemer @LCPS_Math
Mark your calendars! The Scholastic Book Fair will be here before you know it. Come join us November 11-15. Look forward to seeing you there! @Smarts_Mill
Students see new Wipeboards. "Those are cool!" Test review done standing, students (on their own) start talking MATH! Self contained grade 7!! ๐ @KJoliverMath @Smarts_Mill@BSchjolinLCPS @brady_math @LCPS_Math
Can your students tell you when the next one will be? How far into the future can they go? How far in the past? Do they see any patterns? What times of day can be represented using perfect squares? How did you Math today? ๐ค @LCPS_Math @KJoliverMath
