I hated math bc of Mrs. Lee my 5th grade math teacher. I always would get the correct answer but I found the answer my own way, not the traditional procedural way she expected. She would only except her solutions.  When I teach math, I always tell my students that there are always more than 1 way to solve a problem.  ]]> 2019-06-03 15:34:10 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365333788 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334034 Math
My math experience usually involved paper and pencil.  I don’t remember using many manipulatives or interactive tools.  I always did fairly well in math but never enjoyed it as much as literacy.   This is the same for my teaching of math. ]]> 2019-06-03 15:35:02 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334034 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334375 -Timed tests
-Math olympics
-Math series with worksheets and homework from the giant book
-I remember enjoying math and feeling confident about it, but many of the strategies used were those that we don’t use anymore.  I think that is why I sometimes struggle with understanding ‘why we can’t just do it the way I learned it.’]]> 2019-06-03 15:36:05 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334375 jamee_smith https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334529 I was a student of lots and lots of timed tests!  I LOVED them!  I finished fast and always competed with one boy for the first one finished!   I don’t remember many number sense activities so teaching it was difficult at first.  I have learned to LOVE number sense and have had many personal ‘aha moments’ while teaching over the past years.    ]]> 2019-06-03 15:36:35 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334529 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334606 My math memories in elementary school consisted of daily worksheets and timed tests and I never had the opportunity to share my math thinking.  ]]> 2019-06-03 15:36:56 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334606 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334627 I strongly remember fact timed tests being a big part of my 5th grade class, then the teacher would announce out loud for all to hear how many each kid got correct. I always was in the lower part. I also will never forget 7x8 =56 because that was one I got wrong so many times. It was stressful. So in my own math classroom I do not stress the speed of facts rather the fluency of having a strategy that works well for them. I would much rather them know a strategy that they can use and be flexible in their thinking.]]> 2019-06-03 15:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365334627 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365335071 Memorization was a huge piece. Timed tests were part of the routine. Could totally relate to the anxiety piece from article and still feel it to this day when I feel “put on the spot” in any math training/class (doesn’t even have to be about math facts).

I hated word problems, however, because I could not solve them in my head, and while I could usually find the correct answer, it was usually not the same strategy that the teacher was looking for. I especially hated math in high school, because even though I couldn’t always explain it to other people, I was able to get good grades so some friends always accused me of cheating because my dad was our math teacher.]]> 2019-06-03 15:38:34 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365335081 megan_pickarski1 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365346096 - liked dealing with numbers

I remember reading from the math text book everyday. I remember being good with standard algorithms, but didn’t understand number sense until college.  I do not remember playing or exploring with numbers or tools. I was never taught how to solve word problems, or modeling my thinking. I was never able to ask my teacher for help, at least I never remember her being accessible for questions or small group instruction. I don’t remember playing math games. ]]> 2019-06-03 16:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365353148 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365356237 I remember enjoying math in elementary school even though I wasn’t the best at it.  remember having confidence in addition, but struggled with subtraction. My third grade teacher recognized my struggle and insecurities with my facts and I remember her working with me...even it it was during a recess game! She made learning fun. Lots of timed tests in 4th and 5th grade for multiplication and division. I hated the timed tests because even though I knew my facts, I put so much pressure on myself that I would freak out and do horrible on them. I also remember math textbooks, worksheets, and traditional algorithms. I would be able to get the answer but often struggled to understand the why. ]]> 2019-06-03 16:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365356237 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365360285 I figured out that I wasn’t good at math in first grade when I couldn’t pass the addition timed tests to move my rocket up on our classroom bulletin board. In second grade I embarrassed myself in front of my whole class when I couldn’t set the hands on the plastic clock properly. At that age I remember confessing to my mom that I couldn’t count money and didn’t think I would ever get the job of cashier at the Cash ‘n Carry grocery store! Looking back it seems like every year in school I struggled with some important math concept that I worried would hold me back as an adult. After awhile I stopped trying to be good in math. My attitude in math class sucked and I was dreadful to my math teachers in middle school. I would yell at my poor dad when he tried to help me with my algebra homework in high school. Thank goodness for teacher math courses in college where I was able to explore math concepts without feeling like a dummy. Feeling like a bad math student has helped me relate to my students who lack confidence in math. When talking to students who feel like failures, I can share my own experiences and hopefully encourage them to not give up.]]> 2019-06-03 16:59:44 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365360285 carrca https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365360513 I have a HORRIBLE memory of my elementary years (to be honest, I don’t remember much middle or high school either).

I felt confident and great when playing around the world and doing timed tests because I have a great memory and can memorize like no body's business. But when things got a little more challenging, specifically when I left Catholic school and went to public in 7th grade, all my confidence fell apart. I struggled--not productively. I vividly remember sitting with my dad at the dining room table crying over math and him angry with me because he couldn't understand why I had such a hard time with it. This continued all through high school. I hated math and never thought it had a purpose for me or that I'd use it in my life. When I finally took Elementary Math for my education license in college, I started to learn math because of how I was being taught to teach it. This new discovery evolved as I started teaching in Hilliard and really changed when Hilliard started to rethink teaching math! If you would have told me when I was in 7th grade that I would grow up to be a math coach, I would have laughed out loud! I am in constant search for the "why" in things and I love that I can do that alongside teachers and students now!]]> 2019-06-03 17:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365360712 kristen_rigsby https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365361357 I grew up enjoying math often because I could visually see the problem and knew the answer. I thrived on being first and loved the timed tests because I thought that showed my smarts. However upon beginning calculus and geometry I struggled with how to prove and share thinking about the process and how I ended up with the answer. In college when taking math for educators I began to understand the only way I would be successful was to be able the show thinking and understand where others might come from. ]]> 2019-06-03 17:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365361357 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365361587 Math was never really a strong subject for me. I remember times test and how much I hated them. I also remember needing to have a math tutor around 3rd grade. I continued to hate math all throughout my school experience and even taking only the math course that were required of me throughout high school and college.

I only remember learning algorithms. Only when I took a teaching class for math in college did I start to really understand why the algorithms where what they were and the feeling of struggling. I had anxiety about reading so I remember more about that. I was always good at math so don’t have any bad memories. ]]> 2019-06-03 17:05:02 UTC https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365361730 https://padlet.com/betsy_long2/qu5vt48w9sxj/wish/365361752 I remember being showed exactly how to perform certain task.  Not a lot of reasoning involved or discussion with others.
