https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt This was on a post by Donna Boucher from Math Coach's Corner. I love her blog! What can you tell about this student's understanding of math by looking at how he/she solved the problem? en-us 2017-11-06 01:35:48 UTC 2024-11-21 09:19:05 UTC hello@padlet.com jiwase1 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/203714394 2017-11-06 01:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/203714394 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/204114389 This student has a good idea of how the numbers work and understands how to deconstruct and reconstruct to get the answer

The student knows that it is easier to use things you know (such as doubles in this case) to solve math problems than working with the one you were given. This student is confident enough to take a risk and try to solve this problem in a new way.]]> 2017-11-07 15:17:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/204390820 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/204654660 This student is able to see the connections between multiplication and division, as well as how the numbers relate to each other (double/half). They are able to go back to what they already know (7x8) and then apply it to the problem.]]> 2017-11-08 02:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/204654660 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205489694 This student understands basic math facts, fact families, and how multiplication and division are related. This student also knows how to use the half and doubling strategy. Other qualities include neatness and legibility. This student also can explain his thinking and how he understands how these numbers form a relationship to one another. His "thinking" is easy to follow and to understand. It is easy to reference back to the problem so apply the thinking. ]]> 2017-11-09 20:11:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205489694 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205496556 The student obviously has basic multiplication skills, and appears that there is a pattern she /he uses. ]]> 2017-11-09 20:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205496556 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205502850 The student is able to build on the multiplication facts they understand, and see how larger facts can relate to ideas they already know. The lines dividing the thinking on the work page, shows that the student is organizing their thought process. ]]> 2017-11-09 20:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205502850 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205508608 The student knows their multiplication facts. They know the relationship between numbers and the relationship between multiplying and dividing. They try to present their knowledge in a logical order.]]> 2017-11-09 21:01:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205508608 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205551177 This student knows and understands the connection between multiplication and division. They also understand how numbers are build (place value) due to the fact they knew 7 is half of 14. They know by breaking the larger numbers into smaller parts the problem can be easier to work with. They have a strong foundation of basic math and are able to apply it to new situations.]]> 2017-11-10 00:56:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205551177 https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/205851487 We can use the same concept but with easier operations and numbers for our younger students. The student work shown obviously demonstrates that they understand number and operation how they can be broken down and built up in differing relationships. This activity points to the key role that the "=" sign plays in math. Basically you can have a multitude of combinations and permutations of numbers on either side of the "=" sign, but they have to be equal!

He/she applies the double/half strategy to find the solution.]]> 2017-11-15 16:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwase1/f4jczilvkxjt/wish/207304317
