A way for students to share their own thinking and is a great way for teachers to further comprehend the child’s strategies

We respect all students as to where they are at in their learning by doing Number Talks. Students that may be stuck or not understanding a certain strategy can look to other strategies that their peers have explained.

# data[].attributes.body
Number Talks is a strategy that allows students to share their own thinking/algorithm and helps the teacher notice, name and nudge each student’s thinking in relation to where they are in a given learning progression.

# data[].attributes.body
Allows for students to build knowledge on their own strategies as well as new strategies that each student shares. It also allows for students to develop the skills they may feel they have been lacking.

Number talks allow students to see a variety of strategies to solve the same problems
Recognize that there are multiple ways to get a solution
Exposure to mental math  in kid friendly language

Number talks shows students that there are many ways to come up with an answer

# data[].attributes.body
A quick, easy to implement activity to allow students to develop and deepen their understanding of ‘number’ by explaining their thinking and listening to the thinking of others. We hope to see an increase in student confidence and willingness to share.

Allow students to hear different strategies they might not have considered. Incorrect answers can provide great discussion - strategy choice, process, etc

Number talks ensure respectful learning by allowing every student to demonstrate the strategy they used, therefore allowing many strategies to be spoke about

Number talks allow teachers to let students see each other’s thinking and visually represent it for them.

Student talk is crucial. Allowing students the time to explain their thinking and their strategies gives them the opportunity to develop their metacognition. Allowing students to question each other also develops respect for the ideas of others and offers new ways for them to approach problems.

# data[].attributes.body
Allows students to gain confidence in their mathematical thinking as every answer is accepted and they can see how everyone has different answers instead of only one “correct” method. They begin to feel as though they can contribute.

Number Talks allow the teacher a sense of strategies students are proficient with and identify areas/strategies that require further guidance and practice.

Number talks allow students to share their thinking and question each other’s thinking in a respectful, non-judgemental environment. They allow students to share multiple strategies and understanding of math concepts in order to inspire and promote learning. The teacher works as a facilitator to ensure all students are heard and the needs of all learners are met.

It allows students to hear other student’s strategies.

# data[].attributes.body
Number talks will allow all students to be comfortable in sharing their math ideas (without fear of being “wrong”) and then will inspire math learning and math confidence.

# data[].attributes.body
Give students a chance to see others strategies they might not have used or thought of.

# data[].attributes.body
Students can reach other students by sharing their strategies, when sometimes the teacher has been unable to.

Varied strings allow students to enter the conversation at their own level. (Providing more than 1 string: 1 easier and 1 more difficult)

Number talks allow students to see other students’ strategies and learn from them.

The strategies take into consideration all of the various learners you have in the classroom including struggling learners

# data[].attributes.body
By allowing students to think about arriving at answers in different ways, you are putting the needs of each learner first and ensuring that they are comfortable to explore variations in their answers instead of conforming to one way of thinking.

Numbers talks allows students to freely share their understanding when and if they are ready. I like how the silent symbol, thumb up, down, side conveys to the teacher understanding. All students can contribute regardless of level of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Number talks allows all learners to utilize the strategy that works best for them, at their own speed. All answers are considered which provides that extra support for the struggling students.

# data[].attributes.body
Number talks allow each student to feel successful without the pressure of ‘being right’, and focus on the individual student’s strengths.

# data[].attributes.body
I have a very low group of junior mathematic students, so number talks will hopefully help them start understanding numbers better and build the primary skills they have not yet mastered.

# data[].attributes.body
Number talk allows all students to become comfortable and confident using numbers

# data[].attributes.body
This allows for all students to share their thinking which can guide the teacher to understand and correct any misconceptions they may have. This also allows students to gain insight into different strategies that their friends used that they may not have thought of.

Putting the needs of learners first by allowing all types of learning to be accepted
Learning is promoted when student voice is allowed and heard
Less intimidating with the thumbs up strategy

Number talks encourage others to use strategies that work for them.
Every answer is accepted. Students may learn from others’ strategies.

We can ensure respectful learning in our classroom by making every learner feel that they can share their strategy without fear of making a mistake. We are creating a space for accountable math talk. Growth mindset is at the forefront! Mistakes are a part of the learning process.
