Math progress is so scaffolded. Not like many subjects where you can be bad in one area but you can still succeed at everything else.In Math, if you don't grasp addition, you won't get subtraction.You need a big event to change your mindset. https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458018376 2020-03-11 00:00:28 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458018376 Confidence and perception play a role at getting good at math. https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458018843 2020-03-11 00:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458018843 sometimes students come with very little math. Being a technician at language acquisition and content area are very important. https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019045 2020-03-11 00:02:16 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019045 Being positive, sending a positive message about math, sharing our own difficulties (if we had them) with students https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019409 2020-03-11 00:03:15 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019409 We work on problems that multiple entry points so all students can contribute to the group. https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019484 Teachers can also give students credit by noticing when they are contributing and commenting on it.

]]> 2020-03-11 00:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019484 I think lots of times kids think being good at math = smart and being bad at math = dumb. Kids know math is important, there is a lot of pressure about STEM career paths, so I think it's easy to negatively internalize feeling bad about one's performance in math = I suck as a (smart) student https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019850 2020-03-11 00:04:32 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458019850 The discourse important b/c it can be a culture shock https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458020667 2020-03-11 00:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458020667 There are so many many ways to solve problems. Students need the freedom to choose their own methods whenever possible. https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458020742 2020-03-11 00:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458020742 Students can be influenced by their parents' mathematical identity. flipinrad9 https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458021410 2020-03-11 00:08:40 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsth/49egekfq8t0a/wish/458021410
