“Math isn’t Scary!” Math night at Double Springs Elementary was a huge success. Huge shout out to Math Coach Angela Baldy, Mrs. Tucker, and all the amazing teachers for a fun evening of math for students and parents. #numbertalks#numberstrings#strategies#mathisfun#mathforall
Fluency means that students use strategies that are flexible, efficient, and accurate to solve problems in mathematics.

Here’s Cathy helping teachers analyze one of hundreds of #numberstrings on our online platform.
An activity or task necessitates a mathematical idea or strategy if the attempt to understand the situation or task creates for students a need to understand or use the mathematical idea or strategy.

Sounds like #numberstrings...
Calculating with number sense as a mathematician means having many strategies available and looking to the numbers first before choosing a strategy.
One good reason we use #numberstrings like this one almost every day.

I began the day going over some mental math strategies in junior. We can’t assume students have consolidated these strategies by a certain grade. Wrapped up with a Knowledgehook game show to check in on understanding. @AnthonyBrampton@DP_math#dpmathleads#numberstrings
#mathtalks and #numberstrings are my new favorite math warm-ups! How they’ve developed students mental math and conceptual understanding is 🤯 We just started the Math Talk, after about 50 number string cards so working our way to harder-but I’m so impressed!
#numberstrings are beautiful.
Try this one with your 4th or 5th graders.
What big ideas and strategies and fractions would you expect to emerge from your students?

What do #numberstrings like this one have to do with Data Representation and Analysis?
Join Cathy Fosnot Friday at 3:30 in PSCC session 431 to find out.

If displayed and discussed one group at a time, left to right, what big ideas and strategies for early multiplication are likely to emerge in this minilesson?
#mtbos#iteachmath#elemmathchat#numberstrings
In #numberstrings, we encourage kids to examine the numbers in the problem and let those numbers guide them in finding ways of solving.
The relationships among the problems in the string are critical to support kids in doing this.
