First day of XC camp was great and we have a new team mascot! He’s chilling in Coach Lamms pool as we speak.

A5:
I got 514*3 + 1311 = 2,853
My quick strategy was to get a 500 number * 2 and then get something close to 1000 to add to it.

A6: I think that this is creative because it gets student to think about math facts while trying to achieve a goal!

Last problem for us.

Q5. & Q6
Whether you do the problem or not, please comment on Q6 - Where is the creativity in this activity?

@MarkChubb3 You are correct!

A4 :

I see 12 of something. Can you guess what I am looking at?

Q4. I'll go first...

I see 9 of something. Can you guess what I'm looking at?

[Abigail Blint @abigail_blint]

@MarkChubb3 Are you looking at the yellow dice?

[Abigail Blint @abigail_blint]

A3:
I also got 9 squares but I think the more time I spend on it I can find a way to make it so I can get 10. I think this creativity is thinking outside of the box and using trial and errror.

[Mark Chubb @MarkChubb3]

Q3 - Let's actually do some math here.
Take a minute.
Draw it up or use some tech...

How many 2by2 squares can you make on 9by9 array?
@Trianglemancsd made 9, but he thinks you can make 10 or 11?

A2:
I think being creative in math class incorporates more than just paper pencil and the lesson. Manipulatives like blocks, dice etc. In addition using websites like Kahoot, Quizlet live, and others I think are a creative way to use math in the classroom.

Q2 - I am curious about how you see Creativity in mathematics. Share some examples of creativity in math class for us.
#elemmathchat

[Abigail Blint @abigail_blint]

@MarkChubb3 It is an accelerated class and they are always wondering how things connect to daily life and putting into perspective outside the classroom especially when we are doing word problems connecting to the lesson.

A1:
I have been a intern in a few classrooms. The best math class that I’ve been in was focused, respectful, inquisitive, and fun. Got their work done on time, gave undivided attention during the lesson, and got things done so we could have fun!
