@SiddhiDesai311 Awesome thank you! I use 2&3 but I will def check out 1!!

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

Just curios what favourite practitioners article people have their elementary methods class read and discuss?

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

Always awesome presenting @nctm!

Everyday language can be a barrier or a lever and everyday language provides opportunities to talk about mathematics. @zdearaujo asked us how can we use everyday language to build a bridge to more formal mathematical understanding? #NCTMINDY22 @NCTM

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

How many terms? Is it a quadratic? As @zdearaujo said she doesn’t know and that’s okay, but it’s also uncomfortable because we want to know the answer, but we need to be okay with not knowing. @NCTM #NCTMIndy2022

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

“I want to provide the student the opportunity to get the answer correct” @thestrokeofluck talking about what happens after students’ share mistakes #NCTMIndy2022 @NCTM

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

@thestrokeofluck engaging is in thinking through how and when we discuss student errors by selecting the right mistake @NCTM #NCTMIndy2022

What a good time with @zdearaujo attending @NCTM regional! #NCTMNOLA22

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

@zdearaujo talking about why we should care about substitution and elimination! It’s more interesting than you think!!
“We’re so set in procedures we forget to be sensible”
“Math is creative, and we can kill creativity with rigidity”

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

Important messages by @zdearaujo “Playing w/ algebra is important & necessary, We we need to start playing w/ math again”
“When you over proceduralize, you limit creativity of students”
@NCTM #NCTMNOLA22 @2minteachguide

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

How does race matter in mathematics education? @robertqberry asked us to ponder that question @NCTM #NCTMNOLA22 this morning. How do we empower black students in mathematics?

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

What a great morning @NCTM engaging teachers, leaders and coaches on how discourse actions provide space for student voice! And so glad to be in person with my mathematics people!! @thestrokeofluck @MBostonMath #NCTMNOLA22 #msmtq

[Amber Grace Candela @amcan36]

Agreed..... #NCTMNOLA22
