@ncpgrade6 @ManachabanMS Love it!

[Denise Gaskins @letsplaymath]

This fantastic game by @DavidKButlerUoA teaches students to make logical deductions about number relationships.

With a variation for younger players, too!

Closing a lesson with 3 examples in a full house with @pgliljedahl , order them in difficulty, teacher scribe formalizing variance. What can we do will all problems first. #thinkingclassroom #NCTMDC23

[Traci Jackson @traciteacher]

Note making, first at whiteboards then making their own copy. Bringing order to whiteboard learning with @pgliljedahl #ThinkingClassroom #NCTMDC23

Awesome #ThinkingClassroom pivot in grade nine math today.
Take this boring problem.
Lawn with dimensions 20 by 14. Pool with radius 10.
What’s the area of the lawn? Yawn.
