Muliplicative thinking: A really big idea by tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think Making meaningful connection en-us 2016-10-25 23:19:32 UTC 2025-11-14 04:31:10 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Send.png ‘The importance of multiplicative thinking as a ‘big idea’ of mathematics has been well documented, as has the importance of ‘big ideas’. Charles (2005) asserted that ‘big ideas’ “link numerous mathematical understandings into a coherent whole”, make connections, and that “good teaching should make those connections explicit” (p. 10). Multiplicative thinking is one such ‘big idea’.’ tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190247 2016-10-25 23:23:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190247 ‘Instead of teaching children a set of ‘rules’ for working with numbers, and teaching ideas like multiplication and division as separate entities, more effective teaching would focus on reasoning about why numbers behave as they do when operating, and understanding how multiplication and division are different ways of describing the same situation.’ tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190278 2016-10-25 23:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190278 ‘The foundations for some later concepts are being laid years before full understanding of the concept may manifest itself. tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190380  ]]> 2016-10-25 23:24:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190380 Time to get thinking... tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190707 2016-10-25 23:27:32 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190707 The Development of Multiplicative Thinking in Young Children tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190961 2016-10-25 23:30:05 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133190961 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133191374 2016-10-25 23:34:43 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133191374 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133191541 2016-10-25 23:36:53 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133191541 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133192548 2016-10-25 23:48:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133192548 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133194587 Developing the big ideas of number - Hurst and Hurrell]]> 2016-10-26 00:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133194587 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195540 NZ maths multiplication and division]]> 2016-10-26 00:19:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195540 Learning and assessment framework for multiplicative thinking - Di Siemon tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195604 2016-10-26 00:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195604 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195832 The Multiplicative Situation]]> 2016-10-26 00:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195832 Strategies for Going Mental tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195967 2016-10-26 00:23:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133195967 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133196232 Numeracy continuum - aspect 5]]> 2016-10-26 00:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133196232 tregoningmich https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133204085 2016-10-26 01:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/tregoningmich/mult_think/wish/133204085
