Do you believe simple can be better? Less can be more? Do you have students who could use help with both computation & reasoning skills? So many key concepts in the puzzle below. Try it as a small-group activity next week with your Gr 3 kids. No time like the present. Magical!

Hallway Pictarithms! A great way to get kids involved & interested. Goal is to use reasoning and grade-appropriate strategies to solve algebraic systems of equations at the earliest ages. Kids love them. I think teachers do, too! Holiday Pictarithms here: https://t.co/wBLVwryTep

Useful research paper on ‘What should teachers know about spelling?’

It turns out, quite a lot. But too few teachers feel prepared with such understanding along with practical strategies.

So important for kids to learn to draw equal parts in grades K, 1, and 2. Need to lay the foundation for grades 3 and up when the game switches to multiplication, division, fractions, proportional reasoning!

[Greg Tang @gregtangmath]

Nothing more important that to encourage kids to think in groups, especially groups of 10! We don't count on our fingers, we communicate with our fingers. If kids need to count, way better to count on ten frames. Thanks for joining us!

After a few days of #fractiontalks it's time for Two Truths & A Lie Fraction Edition! Each group of 3 students presented their convincing proof at the end of our 10 prompt rotation. Great conversations! 😍 @FractionTalks

How many whole avocados? How do you know? Prove it. https://t.co/PnES6gLiM3 tweet your ideas back #startaslowchat

[Childfree Girls Podcast @ChildfreeGirls]

Jennifer Aniston - who the childfree community often used as a celebrity childfree example - recently revealed that she tried to have kids, but couldn’t. Her personal situation is still an example of why demanding to know why a woman has no kids is invasive, rude, & crass.

Writing Revolution was the BEST book about writing with jump right in ideas of our whole year of book talks. If you are going to choose one book to jump start writing-- this is the one. @HarrowHornets @KingsvilleCobra @JackMinerJags read chpts 1 & 2 ...hooked!
