@MatoacaMrsS Thank you for your kind words. I am blessed to have a job I love so much, and am passionate about. I know everyone isn't a math nut like I am. I am here anytime you need me.

A2: Around our school I hear much more math talk, more Sts sharing their thinking, new number sense routines used, and many engaged sts. I commend this group of teachers for taking risks and shifting mindsets! #MAESmath

@Kshultz5 I'd love to see it! I am always so impressed by our sts thinking. Love that you are encouraging math talk!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@evecadranel Great thinking! Let me know if you need help.

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@Kshultz5 I can speak to the upper grades bc that's where I am most of the time. K and 1 are typically the most comfortable with guided math and stations bc of Kathy Richardson and also the age group in general. You aren't going to lecture for 30 mins and give worksheets to young sts.

@APMatoacaES Thanks for leading this Melanie, and for bringing Twitter chats to us.

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@JackieF64321739 I think the sts appreciate seeing that we make mistakes too, and are life long learners.

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

A4 Take a minute and go back to your first twitter posts about MW and how math looks in your room. Wow! Don't stop believing! We've come so far! #MAESmath

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@evecadranel This makes me happy!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@evecadranel Even if they don't share actual activities they could share tips for how it is structured, managed, etc. Good idea!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

A3: Next school we can refine our MW practices by starting with the mini lessons, and setting up a successful math workshop from the start of the year. I'd also like our school to focus on various number sense routines in PLCs. #MAESmath

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@JackieF64321739 I hear that daily in your room! That is music to my ears:)

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@APMatoacaES @angelfrogg One of my favorite quotes too!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@JackieF64321739 Love how the sts aren't afraid to ask questions! What a great math community of learners!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@Tracy83791145 You are making the math block a safe time, and addressing all learners. Kudos!

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

@MatoacaMrsS I also think your sts are comfortable sharing their thinking, and taking risks.

[Katelyn Brophy @MatoacaMath]

More guided math is occuring too! Lots to celebrate!
