When students are given space to solve problems, they grow as thinkers. Here’s a short blog I wrote about reimagining math classrooms—with problem-solving at the core. Enjoy and make the shift! https://t.co/ud3AhBnetD

Loved spending time and collaborating with these great people! @fayleong in Hong Kong! #hkis

A simple problem that gets students make sense of place value and allows them to communicate their reasoning #iteachmath #makingsenseofmathematics

What do you notice about 113, 131 and 311? What questions does it make you think of?

[Caty Romero (she/her) @catyrmath]

The most rewarding aspect of facilitating a workshop is seeing the tangible impact it has on teachers. Witnessing their excitement and inspiration to shift their approach and make small changes that get students thinking about math. Amazing team of educators @HKIS @fayleong

I remember making this well over a decade ago now. I just remade it for MathsBot.

Still quite fun. First one to beat my score of 89 is a good egg.

How can we ask better questions? Questions that push students’ thinking. #makingsenseofmathematics

[Nell K. Duke @nellkduke]

📊Research has found that classrooms differ a great deal in quality of discussions--and those differences impact comprehension development. Please see below for examples of differences. For a self-assessment and guide to quality talk about text, see https://t.co/hWnyoFVV17

Puzzle of the day

[Caty Romero (she/her) @catyrmath]

How do we find out how students are thinking about math? Definitely not through worksheets. #makingsenseofmathematics

[Robert Kaplinsky @robertkaplinsky]

Math worksheets rarely give us the results we truly want. There's a better way and I recorded a webinar with elementary and secondary versions that you can watch to learn more.
