@mathequalslove the book that you inspired me to purchase arrived today. I'm looking forward to delving in and see what treasures it holds.

Thanks, Christine and Leia. We were just talking about Shazam buddies in a grade 3/4 class I was coaching. I brought the circle times table task. Sooo Fun!! And one kid said, "Hey, 4 and 6 make the same star shape, and 4 and 6 are Shazam buddies." It was beautiful!!! #Mtbos

I'm in.

2/5 of 3/4. Draw a bar representing one split it into fourths and then each fourth split into fifths and color in two fifths of the three quarters. #MathStratChat

#Dyslexia excellent video that mimicked my own process to improve reading but one that takes clear advantage of technology these days. youtu.be/tjl0_K-FPBM

#MathStratChat I turned it into fractions multiplied and then divided each term by 100 and added.

I put 504 into a place value chart and used it to organize my thinking. 5 hundreds blocks would be broken into tens to make 50 tens I would group 48 into 2 groups of 24 then the 2 that I have left over I would break into ones so that I have 24 ones which makes 1 group.

I adapted a Gord Hamilton (math pickle) task to incorporate decimals and perimeter. #MTBoS @TAnnalet I'm looking forward to doing it with my kiddos this week.

Rolling for quadrilaterals with Cuisenaire rods . . . task I'm doing with my class tomorrow. Any thoughts on ways to make it better? The trapezoid building will be interesting to watch :) #MTBoS @TAnnalet (Outcomes: adding decimals, shapes, perimeter, perimeter formula)

looking to combine strands. I would love any feedback/ideas . . . Create a picture worth one where the white rod is worth 0.01. Graph colors you used the gr. 5 in a bar graph and the gr. 6 as a line graph. #MTBoS @mathematize4all @BerkeleyEverett @MarkChubb3 @TAnnalet

#MTBoS @MurrayH83 I just changed your cross number puzzles to a 1 instead of 100 and it's a great task then for decimals. Thanks again what a versatile activity!!
