I like how with number talks the discussions are student led. This allows students to be able to share their thought process and reflect on their learning and strategies used in class.

While observing number talks teachers learn which strategies are popular and frequently used by the class, as they can see how many students shared similar ideas. Teachers can learn which ways students like to solve problems and what their thought process is while solving them.

In a number talk the student's role is to come up with strategies to solve the problem and be leaders in the discussion. In a number talk as the teacher, you are the facilitator and the discussions should be student lead. The students share their ideas and lead the discussion.

In a number talk you as the teacher would display a problem on the board like, 55+73. Then you would give students time to think through what strategies they would use to solve the problem. Students can use their fingers to show when they are ready and how many ideas they came up with to solve the problem. Once the class is ready then the students share out their ideas on how they chose to solve the problem in their heads as the teacher writes out the students thinking on the board.

The teacher's role in a number talk is to listen to students and the strategies they are presenting. The teacher also writes out the strategy the student is sharing on the board. In number talks, the students are leading the conversation and as a teacher, you are facilitating and helping when necessary.

I like learning different ways to solve math problems through hearing the different ways that my classmates think through their math problems.

I like how number talks are reflective. It allows a student to reflect on their own learning and problem solving skills and compare themselves to their peers.

The role of the students in this situation is to be the leaders in their own learning. Their job is to figure out different ways in which they can solve the problem on their own, without the teacher's help. The teacher can ask follow-up questions or guide the students towards the correct way of thinking, but the students are the ones that are more responsible for their learning in this case.

The role of students in number talks is to independently solve the presented number sentences on the board in their head and count how many ways they can solve it. When the teacher is ready, the students will have the opportunity to share how they solved it themselves.

The teacher can learn which students learn which ways. The teacher can observe the way that students gravitate towards, and see in which ways they are struggling.

The teacher's role in this situation is to listen to the students and what their responses and strategies are. The teacher can write on the board to show what the strategies are, but number talks are primarily student-led with the teacher being a facilitator.

The role of a teacher in a number talk is to present the math problem, enforce rules, and demonstrate the students' work on the board. The teacher will not feed answers to students, instead they will present open-ended questions that are thought provoking for students.

The students role is to think of the most ways that they would be able to solve the equations metally. The student should be talking there thoughts out with the class when they are ready.

I liked the process of students putting the number of fingers to represent the number of strategies they can use to solve the problem by their heart so that the teacher can see how many strategies the students have in mind, but the students can't see the others' answers and as a result can be more honest about their own.

The teacher role is simply just to facilitate. The teacher should not be putting out there ideas unless needed, it should be student lead. The teacher should be observing students answers and students who maybe struggling to solve the problem.

A teacher's role in number talks is to identify what the students know. By students showing their work out loud, other students can see the creativity behind their classmates' learning and it will spark their knowledge. A teacher is basically there to facilitate and guide the student's learning.

The teacher's role is to write down the thoughts of their students throughout the number talk. The teacher should be careful not to solve the problem or give away too much and to let the students work through the problem collaboratively. It is okay for the teacher to ask questions that further their students understanding and make them think of new ways to solve the problem.

Teachers learn from their students through number talks by learning new ways of thinking and getting to know their students' ways of thinking. It's a good way to get to know your students as learners and understand their approaches to math.

A number talk routine would look like giving your students an equation. You would give students a question like 10 x 3, and ask them to hold up how many fingers to represent how many ways they can think of to solve the problem in there head

Teachers can learn about the way in which their students process the different problems, which is extremely valuable when figuring out the best ways to teach them the content. By the students going through the steps and strategies they use to solve the mathematical problems, the teacher is able to figure out the best way in which the students learn.

One of the ideas I learned from the resources was the use of visual reminders to set expectations for students. The first-grade teacher who held up the visuals of how to talk with a partner was effective because she had a set process and way of giving them reminders that the students were accustomed to. It is especially important that students understand how to communicate with one another during number talks.

I also enjoyed seeing how sentence frames can be used in math. I feel that I benefit from examples of those because I am used to seeing sentence frames in English. It is good to see how those can be used during number talks.
