An estimate is not merely a “guess.” A reasonable estimate depends upon mathematical understandings of both numerosity and measurement.

Regardless of how high #preschoolers can rote count, a child’s sense of what those numbers actually mean develops gradually. We call this understanding NUMBER SENSE, and it requires relating numbers to real quantities.

Students in small group writing session using @LincEdhero to reflect on their writing goals. We had active engagement and discussion about their writing goals and students even navigated through the app with the teacher 🌟 @TamaraLPollock @Clapturn

Life changes for the better when we realize that we don't have to know everything and we don't have to pretend that we do.

Great article! I wonder how much we really develop “agency” in schools - student, parent, teacher and school based “agency” ?
I suspect we talk about it a great deal which is a start. Asking the right questions and ...... listening to the answers.... and acting.
Hmmmmm.

A reminder of our recent new, free lessons in data science. I think these would be a great start to the school year, they can be taught online and they help our students become 21st century consumers of the data all around them - access them here: youcubed.org/data-science-le…
