A3: Number Talks, Number strings, 3 Act Math fun, lots of math discourse! #SPSMathChat

A2: if teacher stresses the idea that he/she wants to hear their thinking---how they solved the problem---more than she wants the answer. After their discourse, then I can ask for more discussion, other ways to solve, a different answer, etc. #SPSMathChat

A:1 A:1 Maybe a lack of training on how to focus on encouraging students to share their thinking without taking over to "teach" what we want them to think? #SPSMathChat

“Then the eyes of those who see Will no longer be closed,
And the ears of those who hear Will listen.” Isa. 32:3
Are we seeing the injustice? Are we hearing the anguished cries for justice? Are we listening?

Today during our morning conference, a student asked to read our class poetry book to everyone. She did a wonderful job, and all the kiddos were so proud of their poems! I have to say—-I’m pretty proud too! #spsathome @Sequiota

A5:My first graders usually choose to count on or count back first. When I ask if anyone has a different strategy I get to see deeper thinking—-they aren’t just giving me an “off the top of their head” answer. #spsmathchat
