The purpose of a math class should not be to teach students rules and steps to follow to solve problems. This is especially true now, when students have access to so many online resources and tools that can show them how to solve problems or that can just give them the answers.

Ratios are everywhere πŸ€“ After investigating the ratios within circles as part of our Pi Day celebration, students are now ready to explore the ratios in their own bodies! #iteachmath #mathiseverywhere #handsonlearning #SalkStrong

Another successful #PiDay on the books! Every year it seems to get bigger and bigger (and more and more exhausting πŸ˜…) but the kids really had a great day and were excited about math! #winning #SalkStrong #ilovemath

Although none of my ss have seen "Father of the Bride", watching a clip from movie helped them understand real world uses of LCM. Ss then worked together to solve similar problems & used linking cubes to model the multiples. #iteachmath #TheyThinkImOld #SalkStrong
