As autumn approaches, consider the math possibilities after reading Twelve Days of Autumn by Sherri Maret. Pose probs like "How many animals were seen on the 4th day or 10th day?" or up the challenge by asking how many animals were seen during all 12 days. @nctm @MathEdLeaders

@goonie15 @NCTM @ncte @MathEdLeaders Error analysis is one more way to get students reflecting about and analyzing mathematical thinking. And writing about it challenges them to put their analysis/thinking into words.

[Sue O'Connell @SueOConnellMath]

Do you give students opportunities to write about their mathematical thinking? Check out my latest blog on the benefits of writing in K-5 math classes, including tips for making it meaningful. @nctm @ncte @MathEdLeaders https://t.co/Cxwh8AwL1x

Get them talking! Regardless of the math content you are teaching, your students should have daily opportunities to talk about their mathematical thinking! How do you get them talking? @NCTM @ncte #elemmathchat @hand2mind
