Thanks Gaby and Tabitha from @thinkLawUS. Your session ‘Finding the Funk’ had us in a very lively conversation discussing if a burrito was a sandwich! Great questioning strategies! #giftedplus24 #equity #askquestions #getthemthinking @TXGifted

March Madness brackets tweak “What Makes a Good President?”
It’s outside my comfort zone but I’m ready to see what happens next week.

Before winter break, Ms. Perron had her students engage in a simulation of the Berlin Wall. Students reflected afterwards on the process. #Getthemmoving #Getthemthinking @OMMNAACPS @AACPSRightStart

Ts @GPCSD. We were talking about this the other day. Give Ss a choice of which strategy they prefer & make sense to them. Great discussion comes when we see that others get there in different ways! #getthemthinking #buildingthinkers 👍

Let's play "Would You Rather?"!
Which strategy do you wish your brain was inclined to?
Which strategies do you think students should develop?
Why?
Check out some favs from last #MathStratChat.

Want an easy but FUN game to help your Ss become familiar with CR? Try "Grab Bag" by @mathforlove.
It's simple to set up & fun to play. Plus, you can extend Ss learning by adding more 'staircase' sets to the bag. #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking @GPCSD

Use Cuisenaire Rods to connect multiplication with division. Ss use the hands on manipulatives to represent number, compose groups of, show multiples, make fact families, decompose into groups..so many ways to use CR! #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking @GPCSD

Cuisenaire rods are such a powerful tool for Ss in the classroom. This year I have come to love them when looking at operations, number sense, problem solving, fractions, games... so much we can use them for! #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking @GPCSD

Rich tasks can be found anywhere! Sometimes we just need to reframe our thinking to switch things up!
@marian_small gives great insight & tips on how to do this. Check out some easy ways below. #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking @GPCSD

Hey @GPCSD Ts... look at this! A digital version of Shut the Box on @MathigonOrg. Two of our favourite things in one place. #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking Thanks @shskaercher 👍🏼😊

Good morning friends!
Building "RICH" Math tasks into your daily routines, helps Ss become stronger. How? Read below to find out what RICH tasks do for you and your Ss. (Tomorrow we will discuss what a RICH task looks like.)

What's the difference between SPIRAL planning & BLOCKED planning your curriculum? Here's a quick comparison. One has students revisting often, the other is a 'one and done'. Which do you think has a greater impact on Ss learning? #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking @GPCSD

Want to know more about Sprialling & why you should give a try? Kristen Phillips shares the "why" & I must say, she's really convincing! Give it a listen (@GPCSD) Ts. It's fantastic. #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking #knowbetterdobetter

What is "Spiralling"? This week we dive into planning using SPIRALS of learning, rather than UNITS of learning. Think smaller chunks of learning, spread over an amount of time. Ss dive deeper into concepts with each visit they take.

Over the last weeks, Ts gathered to discuss areas of intervention. Focusing on rich, open tasks to solve & created centers that connected understanding & practicing concepts. Games were a big part of our practice..1/2 @gpcsd #buildingthinkers #getthemthinking

Where are my @GPCSD Ts with Ss who would love to tackle this task? Do YOU need to know the answer? Absolutely not. It's rich, open, It's THINKING at its finest! #buildthinkers #getthemthinking @LesleyIAllison @Jacquie54809894
