@dhabecker So we're a little late this thread, but we couldn't agree more!
We're wrapping up a Lego Fraction Talks remix challenge on https://t.co/IJD0X67UPI and posted a bunch of activities our Ts created on @up_teach. We'd love to know what you think!

ANOTHER from @MonicaHousen!
If the block on the left is 1 unit, how many units is the white block on the right? Now reverse! If the white on the right is 1 unit, how many units is the block on the left?

This is Roy, the Founder & CEO here at UpTeach. Here's my remix. https://t.co/PJRCXjP2C1
Maayan's 5th-grade brain created a 10. I give myself a 7.
@FractionTalks@numbertalks@MathforLove any advice?! π€
Add your #remix. Join the #challenge.
@MsPrzybylek One of our UpTeach teachers noticed this too and turned it into this short activity (no login required)

We love the additional questions they included about percentage change, like is it better to gain 40% then lose 40% OR lose 40% then gain 40%?
@Inv3_Math here's another from @MonicaHousen. Here, she uses the 2nd image to reverse the comparison unit. It's like the Cha-Cha Slide of #FractionTalksπ€£
Slide to the Left...Slide to the Right...Reverse! Reverse!

Get students thinking about percentage change with this #MakeItReal math activity. Is business booming? What's the baseline?

Thanks @Neil_Irwin for the excellent article!
Ts: how would you use this?

What is the area of the fortune teller's top? The paper used to make it is a 6" square.

@MonicaHousen does a fortune teller count as origami? We're not sure....but we LOVE this activity for grades 3-5.

There are so many patterns for Ss to notice! And slightly different strategies depending on the starting point.
What patterns would your Ss notice? What strategies would they use?

What's 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 98 + 99 + 100?
Last week's #NCTM100#MathEd session told the famous story of young Gauss' strategy for summing the series.
Here's another entry point using Legos:
