@mramarupareja I got this one from @getting_sharper I’ve done it every year in 5th grade. I get some great work and discussions from it. The students also love it.

We're so proud of @VanDuynChamps principal @EvaDivaWilliams... she is so deserving of this honor from @SAANYS! 🏆

[Sharon Malley @mathsmumof2]

Perfect for a lesson this week on improper fractions #TeamCMAths I’ve sent it to you on teams.

[Illustrative Mathematics @IllustrateMath]

What reasoning do you hope to hear from your students in the discussion? #LearnWithIM

[Janet Marotte @JanetMarotte777]

K-5 math teachers, follow @MrDunkleberger now! Great number talk & lesson discussion prompts like this one. LOVE open number lines for the conversations they facilitate!

Nice overview

A little geometry with @IllustrateMath and a tough game of Sumology, the game of equations. #MTBos

[Math for Love @MathforLove]

I don't remember when we made this change, but all our #fractiontalks are now viewable in a gallery.

@CifonelliMel @SyracuseSchools Either B or D. I think they would be able to separate the area model in order to fit those expressions.

.@SenGillibrand was at @DrWeeksSCSD today to call for expanded community school funding & bolstered services for underserved students. Dr. Weeks is 1 of the 1st community schools & provides wraparound services for children living below the poverty line. We appreciate her support!

@ctfosnot Do you know of any good resources for these types of investigations for elementary?

[Brent Sharpe @already_sharper]

@mpershan @getting_sharper I use SeeSaw. I think these could work well in that format. I’ve never used Classkick.

[Graham Fletcher @gfletchy]

I’m trying to think of some generic meta-questions that could be included on a student recording sheet. I want to give a list and have students choose what they want to talk about while reflecting. I’m trying to keep them short. What am I missing?

[Brent Sharpe @already_sharper]

@kmorrowleong May I ask where the “Fraction Bars/Circles” link sends you?

[Michael Pershan @mpershan]

Clear and convincing critiques, along with pointers to two other serious thinkers on racism: Tommie Shelby and Charles Mills.

I love using BIG or small? as a daily routine...so many options...so much conversation comes from it.
