I'm a big fan of numberless word problems because they force students to think rather than mindlessly compute. Brian Bushart shares lots of free problems for elementary teachers here: numberlesswp.com/

This is a really interesting article on what students need to excel in mathematics. The problem: it isn’t the way WE were taught, so how do we learn it FIRST in order to teach the students?

My favorite slide from one of my favorite talks at @NCTM. One of the biggest challenges facing math teachers (whether they know it or not!) is turning wrong answers into learning. Behold! The Super Wrong, Kinda Right continuum. /by @ottensam docs.google.com/presentation…
ALT The header says "Super Wrong, Kinda Right." There is a problem: 107 x 51. The instructions: Come up with a wrong answer. Where would you put it and why? A continuum below runs from Super Wrong to Kinda Right.
