Hands-on math in action! Ss used a yarn number line to place and compare equivalent fractions and then created their own line plots with a set of data. We are seeing math come to life one fraction at a time! ๐งฎ @TCBOE@MunfordElem@WendyBwgail
Students did an awesome job using models to show fractions as division today. Plus, we tried new games to boost fact fluency! Thank you @WendyBwgail ๐๐งฎ @TCBOE@MunfordElem
The 5th grade Decimal Safari Restaurant was open for business today! The room was full of laughter, learning, and lots of wild math! ๐๐ ๐ฆ ๐งฎ
5th graders built Base 10 Animals today! ๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฏ They added up values to get a total, then found the difference with a partnerโs animal ๐งฎ @MunfordElem@WendyBwgail@AshleyGableEDU
5th graders turned math into a Volume Zoo! After researching their animals and designing Canva presentations, they built their creatures out of rectangular prisms, calculated the volume of each box, and brought their zoo animals to life! ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฆ @MunfordElem@AshleyGableEDU
Exploring volume the hands-on way! ๐ฆ Students created boxes from grid paper and filled them with cubes to see how area grows into 3D space. @MunfordElem
Today we turned into math detectives! ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ Students worked through case files full of problems to crack the big case while reviewing for our test. Lots of teamwork, problem-solving, and excitement filled the room! ๐งฉ๐งฎ @MunfordElem@WendyBwgail@AshleyGableEDU
Students dove into a gallery walk today to take on error analysis with standard algorithm problems. The room was full of math talk, collaboration, and strategic thinking! ๐โโ @MunfordElem@AshleyGableEDU@WendyBwgail
Hands-on learning! ๐งฎ Students used base 10 blocks to connect the area model to partial products! They are able to visualize their strategies step by step. #leadingtheway#workingonmyroar@MunfordElem@TCBOE
I am so proud of our 5th graders and their hard work at the Innovation showcase! They used coding skills to program Ozobots and bring the water cycle to lifeโevaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection in action! @MunfordElem@AshleyGableEDU
Battleship + coordinate plane = 5th grade FUN! ๐ณ๏ธ๐ฏ Students are plotting points, sinking ships, and mastering math with every move! @WendyBwgail@AshleyGableEDU
Rolling into coding! ๐ Had a blast presenting a PD session on using Spheros in the elementary classroom. Hands-on learning, problem-solving, and lots of 'aha' moments! ๐ก @TCBOE@MunfordElem@AshleyGableEDU
We had a great day of classroom walkthroughs with fellow teachers! Loved diving deeper into math instruction and student thinking. Great things are happening at MES!! Thank you @WendyBwgail for all you do! @MunfordElem
Fractions as division just got sweeter! ๐ซ Split a pack of Cosmic Brownies and ask: If 4 friends share 3 brownies, how many does each get? Then draw a model to show the division. Try different numbers to explore fractions as division! @MunfordElem@WendyBwgail@AshleyGableEDU
Seeing is understanding! ๐งฉ Fraction tiles help students master adding fractions with unlike denominators by making the process visual and hands-on. I am so proud of my students in room 111! @MunfordElem@AshleyGableEDU@WendyBwgail
