Students relating to their daily math problems and sharing in this manner is great!!!

It gives me the chance to see what's going on in the child's mind.]]> 2018-12-05 01:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195222 I enjoyed the quadrant and the fact that the verbal mode is discussing what is recorded in all quadrants. https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195228 2018-12-05 01:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195228 I found the reading portion of the five intertwined strands to be very interesting. In addition, I thought the "math curse" was very funny and got students to appreciate problem solving. https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195241 2018-12-05 01:23:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195241 Math Happenings https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195260 I liked the idea of using the "Math Happenings" during the year with students.

I am curious about trying the "Modeling Math Meaningfully" quadrant sheet to explore numerals and quantity. https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195393 In the fourth quadrant I might have them glue objects or add stickers to represent the quantity]]> 2018-12-05 01:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195393 Poster Proofs https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195471 I liked the idea of giving students time to work on a problem individually and then joining their group to share their findings. They display this information on a poster, which is later shared with the class. ]]> 2018-12-05 01:24:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195471 Math Happenings https://padlet.com/jmorrison18/dl85mhu8vri6/wish/311195543 I loved the part about her "Math Happenings".
