Easter candy arrays… we can always sneak in some math! Asked my 3rd grader to try to make arrays to depict a product of 12.

Pumpkin bread making day means all the arrays with my 3rd grader. He said, “we can do a 5 by 2, wait no, there are 12. We can make it a 6 by 2.” Asked him, any other ways? Here are a couple examples. Trying out 18 next! *empty one was eaten by our 7th grade taste-tester

“The way disability is framed affects the way we teach it” @mathematize4all & Erica Mason ALL students deserve the opportunity to be curious & engage in math that involves sense-making, instead of just being told what & how to do math. #NCTM23

Thank you @_CrystalMWatson & your “babies” ❤️ for the perfect closing to #NCTM23. “We have to be in community together to make impact”🔹 “Confusion is not a bad thing, if they feel supported”🔹 “How might you be perpetuating the lack of belonging in your classroom?”

Always enjoy learning from @gfletchy & appreciate all of the work he has done in the area of mathematical fluency. “Listening to kids (share their thinking)is greater than listening for answers”. #NCTM23

A little #multiplicationbyheart practice on this rainy day thanks to the creative mind of @MathforLove . This soon-to-be 3rd grader is loving the chance to problem-solve with new facts. 💛

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. x.com/BleacherReport/status/…
