Timed tests don't build fluency — they build math anxiety. Jo Boaler's research links timed testing to some students' earliest math trauma. This year, let's assess fluency without the stopwatch. #MathAnxiety #FluencyWithoutFear

When 5A goes to the book fair, 5L math Ss have a few extra minutes of math. How do we use that time??? We gain math fact fluency without fear!!! SNAKE and Multiplication Boxes are a TON OF FUN! #EnhancingtheRamseyExperience #FluencyWithoutFear #Gamification
We are seeking #FluencyWithoutFear in #math! How do we alleviate #mathanxiety? #kinaesthetic #games #richtasks #mathtalks #powerofyet #embraceMistakes #art #play We haven’t even introduced a worksheet this week & we have concepts of #perimeter & #area! https://t.co/R4oVeBF1wr ❤️
@Lifewith_paulaG @WrightMath314 @joboaler @MrsGallardo1 R1: I agree completely. I tweeted something similar about the why factor. Student should know why they need to do or learn something. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
Q1: Memorization is damaging because it does not teach the WHY and the why factor is what motivates most students. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear @WrightMath314
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear Math Talks helps students to see that there are different ways to get an answer. Students are able to share their strategy, which builds confidence, and students may see another student's strategy and decide it works better for them.
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear One alternative is to make it into a game like math jeopardy or race to the board. Another way would be to make interactive math assessments online where it seems like a game to students, but you are able to get results without them feeling pressured
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear Some reasons for math anxiety include memorization of math facts and formulas, timed tests, trying to do the problem exactly the ONE way they were taught, and insecurity of not being as "smart" as other students who seem to get math easily.
@Lifewith_paulaG @WrightMath314 @joboaler @MrsGallardo1 You are so right! Not all students learn at the same pace. So it’s important to allow students time to process and problem solve without feeling pressured to do it one way only. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@di_ana_l11 @WrightMath314 @joboaler @MrsGallardo1 You’re completely right! A student needs the proper foundation of number sense so they do not become a lower achieving student in the future. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@WrightMath314 @joboaler @MrsGallardo1 Q1: memorization is damaging and ineffective because is does not allow the students to grasp why something is or how a student processes the problem. It is more important for my students to tell me how they got to an answer #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear Memorization is damaging because memorization does not equate to understanding. It also eliminates the "why" and "how". Students need to understand how to get answers and why. They also need 2 understand that there are different ways 2 get an answer.
@WrightMath314 @joboaler @MrsGallardo1 Q3: reasons for math anxiety is placing students under timed pressure to have fast recall for problem sets. This cause students to feel the stress because of the pressure of time. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler A4: Teaching math fluency is an alternative to timed math tests. Teachers are able to assess students through math fluency and flexibility. Games may be another alternative to getting the kids excited and check for understanding. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler A5: Number talks is a great way to show various ways of obtaining the answer. It opens the students up to new ideas and allows for number flexibility. It also helps the student to build a deeper conceptual understanding of math. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler A1: Memorization is unnecessary and damaging for the students because they are not learning math in a deeper way, and they are obtaining answers without any logical process. This leads to math stress and fear. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
Q2: How can we encourage students to use numbers flexibly? #EDEL5200 #KTR #fluencywithoutfear @joboaler @AnneOBannon2
@WrightMath314 @MrsGallardo1 @joboaler A2: We can encourage number flexibility through weekly math talks and using representional and concrete objects to complete the math objectives. #EDEL5200 #fluencywithoutfear
Q1: Why is the memorization of math facts "unnecessary and damaging"? #EDEL5200 #KTR #fluencywithoutfear @joboaler @AnneOBannon2
