@Jessica_Schma Love that you bring up their role-shift to teachers. They become the "experts" and can share their methods w/ peers! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A20: Through encouraging invented algorithms in our future classrooms, we open doors for exploration and creativity! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A17: (2/2) when talking about fractions. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A17: I am a huge advocate for Reggio-inspired materials in the classroom; however, working with UNIFORM materials is necessary...(1/2)#ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@MadelineDyerOSU Love that you brought up sharing. Great way to introduce any mathematical concept => with a purpose! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@ellentschooley Yes! Let your students explore first and THEN introduce math rules. #ConstructivistTheory = build on what they know! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A16: Ask questions to elicit explanations & keep student portfolios (show multi. examples of student work/use of invented algorithms)#ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@h_radich Yes! My buckeye buddy sings a "borrowing" song => real understanding or just memorization? #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A13: (2/2) your students a song to memorize, let them actually explore the idea of borrowing with manipulatives. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A13: A misunderstanding of place value affects a student's ability to solve more complex math problems. Rather than giving... (1/2) #ElemB

@paulineshawosu Interesting... My first time using pictures w/ multiplication was in 1125/1126 => a great strategy to use, I think! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

(2/2) ...the meaning/relationships between numbers/algorithms => something we know to be critical in true mathematical understanding. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

A11: My experience w/ multiplication was rooted in memorization and speed—both lower-level processes. This strategy took away… (1/2) #ElemB

@DenverJFowler #lol 🙃

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@Wasilewski_7OSU Maybe b/c standardized tests are designed to measure a lot of content. Many problems + short amt. of time = STRESS! #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@Wasilewski_7OSU Portfolios = a way to measure those things! Documentation provides a fuller image of the child's thinking. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@Alexis_Willo It implies greater understanding/problem-solving skill if a child is able to manipulate 1 problem many different ways. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@h_radich Yes! I love that you brought up creativity! One of the biggest sacrifices for teachers/students in preparation for tests. #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@h_radich Ch. 5 of #ESQREM3005 talked about using documentation as a means of measuring student's learning. But is this reliable? #ElemB

[Haley Fowler @MsHaleyJFowler]

@MadelineDyerOSU Absolutely! Which also relates to @anna_eversole5 question... Speed => memorization, not understanding! #ElemB
