Educators can take a note from this exchange. This brother is schooling the reporter. We have to reframe failure as learning opportunity. What did we do or not do. We need to help Ss use errors as information and learn to "fail fast". Thanks @selmekki for sharing this.
Giannis didn’t like this reporter's question on if he thinks this season was a failure. teapawt.net/BleacherReport/status/…

You don't have to regroup to subtract (I never do).
Just a friendly reminder.

Inspired by the work of educators @DingleTeach and @YehCathery featured in our latest magazine, this toolkit offers real-world applications of what it looks like to "humanize math" and align mathematics lessons with our Social Justice Standards.

As I have been teaching online for a number of years now, I thought it might be useful to share some of my principles for active engagement. See more: youcubed.org/21st-century-te…

What guides my teaching decisions is that my job isn't to cover the standards -- it's to uncover them.

I've learned that no problem is ever really important. Getting the answer isn't important....
What's important is the NEXT problem. This means we need to be taking learning from today's problem to use next time.
Making connections & generalizing are key!

Math Facts or Math Relationships? @khomath has a great quote that is stuck in my brain. #iteachmath #mtbos

We often move students from additive thinking to memorizing the multiplication tables. They have no idea what it means. Be careful of making a jump over fostering multiplicative thinking or we'll lose students. @giannahelling at #AIEconf

What if we spent the time we use to administer and grade “the mad math minute” to actually sit down with each child FOR a minute so we can listen to their thinking...just a thought. #elemmathchat

Many formulas and procedures undo place value understanding.
It shouldn’t be an either or thing though... we just need to take the time to help our students develop the steps along the way first.
Otherwise, we completely miss out on real “understanding”

Kinda full-circle. Some 25 years ago I'd taken courses and worked with the Math Learning Center (MLC) in Portland, OR, and now I'll be working, as a math TOSA, with the Bridges curriculum from MLC. My inspiration for visual patterns came from my work with MLC!

Games that involve strategic thinking are so good to begin school & for Ss to play all year long. Thanks, @piogold for reminding me of Pig, Here's the version in The I Hate Mathematics! Book.
