This will help us as educators be more aware of how our students think and create answers/solutions to these things in advanced. For example, being aware of the importance of place values and the number amount that can be in said place value. ]]> 2022-04-28 21:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163343152 cakaduk https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163343785 2022-04-28 21:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163343785 juliadeguzman2000 https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163343793 3 blue spheres equal 12 so 12 divided 3 is 4.
Each blue sphere is 4. Take a blue sphere away from the first scale and the 2 red cubes equal 4. 4 divided by 2 is 2. One red cube is 2.

Check work:
2 red cubes + 1 blue sphere = 2+2+4 = 8
3 blue spheres = 4+4+4 = 12]]> 2022-04-28 21:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163343793 cakaduk https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344023 2022-04-28 21:08:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344023 hgardner9151 https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344283 When it comes to variable thinking, its important to remember we are not just using a varible to represent one number. It can also represets a growing number/pattern. 
Algebraic expressions are the equations students use which may contain a variable.
The patterns can come from the use of manipulatives, graphing, pattern blocks, area models ect to visualize the conceptual learning of algebra. 
Base 10 is important to understand the concepts of numbers. How students group or bundle into new groups. ]]> 2022-04-28 21:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344283 cakaduk https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344365 2022-04-28 21:08:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344365 ejmeier https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344776 It is important that students can identify patterns in important concepts. For example, base ten is 10* more or less than the value next to it. 
It is also important that students can find these patterns on their own. Another pattern students may find is that when moving place values, there is one more or one less digit.  Understanding these patterns can help with mathematic fluency. ]]> 2022-04-28 21:09:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163344776 glally251 https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163347645 I learned that when introducing Algebra to students, it is important for us to have them understand equality, expressions, equations and inequalities so that students are aware of which side of the equation is equal to which side. ]]> 2022-04-28 21:13:05 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163347645 alexandrajusi2 https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163349564 I would think that the cylinder would be the shape that weighs the most and the squares would be the shape that weighs the least. I came to this conclusion because it would take 6 squares to be the weight of the cylinder. This shows how heavy the cylinder is and how much less the squares weigh. ]]> 2022-04-28 21:15:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163349564 hgardner9151 https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163352446 https://jamboard.google.com/d/1-ROvd26uYgWsNgqg9FXPMnCySzhyc36iOa0GSAcj5uw/edit?usp=sharing ]]> 2022-04-28 21:18:49 UTC https://padlet.com/cakaduk/nlm5s3xxvlb3elbd/wish/2163352446
