A3: Everyone has good math ideas. All members bring important thinking. The teacher is not the only authority of knowledge #EEC324S17M https://t.co/oynQyVYU78

[Anna Willems @msu_annaw]

Q3: Explain one norm we want to foster when starting Open Strategy Sharing in our classroom. #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A2: Teacher should listen to Ss discussions, revoice important ideas, guide Ss through struggle #EEC324S17M @allisonhintz124 @ekazemi https://t.co/GA1jbeBtJn

[Monroe Julius @MsMonroeJulius]

When discussions are student centered, what is the role of the teacher? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A1: Math tools can include hundreds chart, cubes and protractors #intentalk #EEC324S17M @allisonhintz124 @ekazemi https://t.co/sAkHKh5JHO

[Marissa Schroeder @Schroed13Maris]

Q1: What are some mathematical objects that teachers introduce during discussions? Also list the type chosen. #intentalk #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

@amandamaesays A2: Ss may not understand that the same number can be written in different forms #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A3:Equality.Ss don't understanding the idea of regrouping. ex:Ss think that 0.4 isn't close to 0.375 or 0.3 is smaller than 0.30 #EEC324S17M https://t.co/Qq6wXnF3LF

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A1: Substituting a close percent that is easy to work with. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/G7OnI0pgAm

[Katie @kemeger]

Q1:"Many percent problems don't have simple numbers" Describe 1 way you can help Ss with estimation in percents and how it helps
#EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A4: Most of the estimation in the real world involves fractions, decimals, and percents. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/GGFVvLQIjS

[Marina Pavek @MarinaPavek]

Q4: Why is estimation essential for students to understand when learning to multiply/divide decimals? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A1: Ss need significant time and experiences to develop a deep conceptual understanding of fractions. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/2vLzGaWVOk

[Kali Cummins @MsKaliCummins]

Q1: What is one of most important factors that students need to develop a deep conceptual understanding of fractions? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

@ijohnseipel A4: Ss could be at risk of struggling in algebra, which can limit college and career opportunities. #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A2: Model- length or number line. defines whole- the unit of distance or length. defines part- equal distance/length #EEC324S17M https://t.co/NFMYRPK37X

[Devan Masessa @MissMasessa]

Q2: What is one model for fraction concepts? What defines the whole? What defines the part? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

Describe a misconception Ss could have about fractions. How can we, as teachers, help Ss overcome these obstacles? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

@annaruels Ss need to know expectations based on behavior, materials used, class discourse, etc #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A3: The after phase is when Ss get the opportunity to discuss, justify and challenge solutions they have been working on. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/Z7Qgn24MC6

[Lauren Meredith @MsLMeredith]

Q3: "It is in the after phase of a lesson where much of the learning will occur" Why is this true? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A2: Let go! Ss should embrace the struggle. Instead, ask prompting questions. Ss will learn authentically with independent study #EEC324S17M https://t.co/Cg3hvTx3lG

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

Q4: Show Ss symbols are connected to everyday life and how to make everyday life easier when using symbols. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/nRKlS4SEr3

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A1: Variable require higher level thinking. They can be used as unknown values, to simplify expression, quantities vary, etc #EEC324S17M https://t.co/w4XqZ1cVyD

[Mackenzie Mrkvicka @MsMrkvicka]

Q1: What is the use in using variables? What are some ways in which they are used? #EEC324S17M

[Amy Delaney✌️ @a_dells16]

Q3: What misconceptions or limited conceptions do Ss have regarding variables? What causes these misconceptions? #eec324s17m

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A2: Patterns are everywhere, math and real world! It is beneficial for Ss to look for patterns to connect math to real world. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/p8n2tTYDMb

[Ashley Rogers @Ms_ARogers]

Q2 Why is it important for Ss to look for patterns in mathematics? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A3: Connections are always important! This will result in less errors in their work. #eec324s17m https://t.co/81udgD141U

[Nathan Peterson @TheeNateyP]

Q3: why is it important for students to learn place values and be able to connect them to addition and subtraction? #EEC324S17M

[Ms. Kayla Malecha @MsKaylaMalecha]

A1: Ss think differently. Seeing a variety of strategies will help Ss see a problem in a different light. #EEC324S17M https://t.co/dbQIsuIo63

[Callie Sieberg @calliesieberg]

Q1: Why might it be effective for Ss to listen to other strategies invented by classmates when problem-solving? #EEC324S17M
