Teachers I want to encourage you today that if you’re doing your very best for kids.
You are doing enough.

ELLs told me that their silence does not mean that they do not know the math content/skills:
"Teachers get concerned with our silence, but we are actually learning how to say things. We need to listen to the language in order to learn it."(Grade 6 ELL)

A lot of teachers are stressed because their students are not where they expect them to be by this point.
They need to give themselves some grace. They can’t teach twice as hard and the kids can’t learn twice as fast.
We just take them where we get them… and move them forward.

So we found out that Fractions gotta a little lost in translation during the last two years. Getting ourselves back to Fractions of the Day. Help yourself.

Efficiency is subjective.
Drawing out the relationship between balloons and packages is more efficient than pulling out numbers and trying to guess what operation the story problem is getting at.
(This was a problem about putting 340 balloons into packages of 10)

Teaching multi-digit multiplication? Want to give us feedback on our new format for #MathLabs called Challenges (like 10 minute warm-up/number talk)?
Here's 4x12, and different ways students might conceptualize it.

😍This is my fav @Flipgrid project ever! My grade 5s were looking forward to K buddies but with Covid limitations we’re unable to meet in person. My Ss recorded themselves reading a book (w/ fluency & expression) and now these QR codes are a part of a K listening centre.

Challenging and enriching mathematics shouldn’t be reserved just for “advanced” learners. ALL students should have access to challenging and enriching mathematics. #TODOS2021 @JuliaAguirre23

If you provide #math intervention, you may want to use Module 3 from the Inclusion in Texas network. This module focuses on Representing Fractions (beyond 🥧 and 🍕). Free materials! inclusionintexas.org/page/in…

On their final assignment, students reflect on how they have grown as a math person throughout the semester. Feel free to make a copy if you want:

What if instead of having math support classes, we have more co-taught math classes?
What if we invested in structures that provide more support without stigmatizing students by isolating them into a class because of their perceived deficits? Why is this a big ask?

My student created his own version of #Estimystery. I let him present it. Even made him a co-host so the kids could send their estimates to him. Listening to him "be me" was too funny! They actually do listen to us. :) docs.google.com/presentation…

These are the shifts that are happening our math classrooms. ALL Ss deserve to learn and understand math. This can be accomplished when we look for more than a number/answer, put math in context, and have Ss TALK about math. #NCSMbold @MathEdLeaders #rsdmathrocks
