Thinking about ways to create math teaching labs which are called OEL Labs (Observation of Evidence of Learning) with @jsanchezmath & @SubitizeThis from Everett Public Schools. Another way to make professional learning visible #nwmc22

Mrs. Werner’s third graders engage in discourse during a learning lab. Teachers are working together to practice facilitating the 3 Reads routine. This routine supports student access to multi-step word problems, builds community, and amplifies language and vocabulary.

Had the opportunity to fill my cup today alongside some brilliant fresh 4th graders. Our prompt was, “What helps you do math? What helps you learn math?” Ss reflected on their past experiences and shared in teams, then I scribed their ideas.

Me: Fielding student responses and explanations about which one doesn’t belong.
Student, blurting, suddenly thunderstruck: “They all belong because they all represent the same thing!”
The rest of the class: *collective gasp of realization, excited chatter*
I love to see it.

We enjoyed zoom-hosting 44 of our kindergarten families for cozy math fun!
It's math in your jammies day at Emerson Elementary! Student's turned drawings into math, counted collections and mathematized picture books during zoom! #EPS_OurStudentsRock #EPS_OurStaffRocks

Fourth graders using a smart panel to synthesize their learning about ways to represent large numbers. Kids are discussing how the location of a 0 in a large number changes the value, how we represent it with words and in expanded form. @EPSMath @IllustrateMath

When students are asked to turn and talk about if place value can be used to subtract 167 from 301 and why they do or don’t think so, and they animatedly burst into discussion. Music to my ears!! @EmersonFalcons @IllustrateMath @jsanchezmath

An estimystery in @EmersonFalcons first grade! How many SOAR tickets did Miss McKeon’s class earn and place in their bucket? If the baggies hold 10 tickets each, what estimate is too low? Too high? Seems about right?
