How do they make logic -  how do they make logic from what they know. We can see when we are observing. They way they look at things and observe things.
Look at the answer and see the logic....what is the thinking behind it...understand more deeply.
It's about making connections.

Teaching the right foundations is essential. Filling any gaps in understanding is crucial. Students can only apply Math they truly understand - therefore we need to make sure they do.

Students can transfer their knowledge and apply it. Concepts can be broken apart and put back together again. Representing and verbalizing in different contexts and different ways is evidence of conceptual understanding. It is not a linear progression from the concrete to the abstract - students go back and forwards. gdear https://padlet.com/ldoughty3/9tcki9e6c11fq9is/wish/794353012 2020-10-01 12:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ldoughty3/9tcki9e6c11fq9is/wish/794353012 Five frames were something we weren't all familiar with, or haven't used much. Some of our learners would benefit from more experience decomposing and recomposing numbers in a concrete way. Schools need to support students with regular PD in Math. The PD should support teacher understanding of conceptual understanding/development in concepts such as place value, fractions/decimals, etc. Consistency in vocabulary is important. gdear https://padlet.com/ldoughty3/9tcki9e6c11fq9is/wish/794380743 2020-10-01 12:53:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ldoughty3/9tcki9e6c11fq9is/wish/794380743 dtaverna https://padlet.com/ldoughty3/9tcki9e6c11fq9is/wish/794398111 Consolidate each step before moving on.
