I wish I was taught this way of finding the GCF and LCM when I was in school. It's so much more efficient than factor trees.

These are the kinds of promises that made my heart so happy to see on the wall of a second grade classroom! The teacher created these norms WITH her Ss, lifting up their voices and ideas about what math should look & feel like. #MTBoS
