Number Talks is a great way for students to learn how to be flexible with numbers and build number sense. It helps students build a deeper conceptual understanding of math in a non-threatening way. Thanks for the strategy resources @cruz4thought and @TheMartinator5. #mymisd

Key words can be sooo misleading. Watch the short video for an example of why: https://t.co/xscvV6BNxR

Using precise language is essential in our math classrooms. We aren’t “plusing” and “minusing”; we are “adding” and “ subtracting. Preach! @rachelpowellphd #TASMtalk #mymisd @TheMartinator5 @cruz4thought @mellmagee

[Misty Young @mistyryoung]

Check this math out! Key words work less than 9% of the time in multi step word problems. Key words are important but shouldn’t be directly tied to operations. #thinkaboutit #TASMtalk #mymisd @TheMartinator5 @cruz4thought @mellmagee

This video from @gfletchy makes me realize that I never REALLY understood division as a kid. I was just a good robot.

Love!!!!!

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

@amyjaemarks Amy, I agree that these tools will be very helpful. I love how they help measure the impact of the coaching being done!

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

A3 P2- Focusing my coaching with teacher on student evidence. Always coming back to the questions, “What do we expect students to learn? How do we know they learned it?” and then making adjustments with instruction using student evidence. #icmisd #studentcenteredcoaching

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

A2 P2 -It is important to look at many pieces of evidence such as past data from the standards being taught, preassess data, formal/informal data, etc. All of these pieces of info will better allow us to meet the diverse needs of all our students. #icmisd #studentcenteredcoaching

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

A1 P2 – Data is gathered from a variety of places such as observations, work samples, QCs, DAs, MAP, etc.. With this possible “overabundance” of data, it is essential that we have systems in place that support the use of this data. #icmisd #studentcenteredcoaching

"We live in a society with lots of kids who don't believe they are good at math. They're put into low groups; they're given low-level work and their pathway has been set." But #math #education doesn't have to look like this @joboaler @Kschwart https://t.co/8y0Xo3Bjfk #edchat

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

@denise47call Well said Denise Call! I agree with all of the strategies you shared for moving towards student centered coaching. #icmisd #studentcenteredcoaching

[Patti Leiva @pleiva12]

A2: Coaches should always be focused on working with Ts and admins to build a community that is centered around improving the achievement of students. We must all become experts at analyzing data and student work samples to help make decisions. #icmisd #studentcenteredcoaching
