Used the Double Clothesline activity to teach solving equations to my applied 10s. Definitely a gamechanger! This helped them really understand and visualize two step equations.

Huge fan of this post from @pwharris. Math is a story and she's outlining the chapters from K-12. #iteachmath mathisfigureoutable.com/deve…

When a student is able to “look up” as if they are peering into their mind to visualize their math thinking, we know students are thinking conceptually rather than simply following a memorized procedure. @MathletePearce #mathetude tapintoteenminds.com/concret…

“What do you value in a park?” We’re answering that question with cardstorming at tonight’s workshop to redevelop the former Napier St./St.Joseph & St. Mary Catholic schools site. Thank you everyone for your great ideas!

Mistakes aren't always desirable. But oftentimes they are. These four types of mistakes can help students expand their skillsets. owl.li/wIcA30hmtpn

It’s interesting that engagement drops when students present their work rather than when teachers consolidate student work after #thinkingclassroom activity. May have to do with difference in register. They try to raise their register. @pgliljedahl #OAMELead
