Second graders making meaning of picture problems. I loved connecting the hands on, to visuals, to equations. Great conversations around misconceptions too. Evidence of brains growing!

@joboaler Love these books. Question, has there been any thought or work done on how to implement these amazing activities virtually? They are very hands on and have opportunity for discourse. How might a lesson look now? Just wondering 😊

Last 2 weeks I’ve been working with our IA’s on the four rights of a learner. They became experts on one, processed their own way and taught others. So proud of their work! #mathconnectsus

This is so much bigger than a commercial. It takes the @USWNT well beyond the moment. This message is creating a movement. Well done @Nike congratulations @USWNT!!

Started our state math testing today. I tried to make every student feel successful. An example of one of the 25 notes of encouragement I left. The pencils and erasers are from Amazon and I love them!
