@doriecp For small schools (I’m in a small rural school) DONT make me find my own sub. Have a system in place that helps with that. Nothing like having a list of phone numbers of people I’m calling between puking trying to find a sub.
Loving the book study I'm in from @LauraAndKarina on #figuringoutfluency especially the learning around helping students check for reasonableness of answers in math. I'm looking forward to using the 3 c's in my classroom- choose, change, check!
@fawnpnguyen@NatBanting I love this idea! Trying to wrap my head around it, if anyone wants to work together on some for grades 4, 5, or 6 let me know? Beginner level thought but for 4th grade what about, “Give me a number that is a multiple of 3…OIF it’s also a multiple of 6, OIF it’s also a factor of
@dwekselgreene@Desmos I love this! Definitely want to use this with my classes this week. I don’t know how to prevent unsolvable cards, but I’m thinking it could be a great class discussion/challenge? Maybe keep a list of cards they feel are unsolvable and see if another group can find a way?
@KauDan721@mccchr@leighann_layton@kauf_quinn Hello! I love the #mathspy games! I have an idea to create my own on a topic you don't have yet (expanded form) but I'm struggling a little with how the template works. Are there instructions somewhere?
@davidwees I didn’t get to use this exact one yet, mostly due to lack of free time to put it together. I do plan to come back to it as a spiral review. My main goal is to review the vocabulary from geometry that doesn’t get used as often in other units.
So I'm trying to come up with something similar to #numbersearch for angles and lines. Anybody want to give me feedback? I'm thinking of using an image like this one, but adding some labeled points and arrows and asking what lines and angles they can find?
@robertkaplinsky @MrVaudrey I use an app called Seconds on my iPhone to create timers. It’s supposed to be for workouts, but tweak it a little and it works for classroom. You can use the music on your phone, so a lot of my “transition” type timers are growth mindset songs, think time is instrumental
@BerkeleyEverett@jennalaib This is wonderful!! I have a particular group that is really struggling to “get” open number line (previous teachers jumped to algorithms very very quickly). I’m thinking this may be the key to help unlock it! I’m going to create some to use in conjunction with beaded number line
@theresawills Ok trying to do this, but I’m missing some knowledge. I don’t know how to “lock” it so a card moves all as one not in parts and I’m not understanding the randomize part. Can anyone help me or point me to where to learn that?
