The student made 5 pieces, one for each person. Nobody gets left out but the pieces are not the same size. I can already hear the cries of "That's not fair!" 😀
Q12: I’m looking at this problem and thinking what I think the student is thinking 1/2 1/3- close enough! Ha!! It took me a minute to really think about how to best solve it. #elemmathchat#UMedTech

A2: I love the idea of praising when they are right, more then correcting when wrong. Math already causes so much anxiety with our kids, building confidence is key! #elemmathchat#UMedTech
A1: Jessica Cummings, administrative assistant, Helena AL. I have never used that before, but totally interested in learning more! #elemmathchat#UMedTech
