@kitluce1 Nope! It was parked after we did some updates on it last month—not on purpose. Should be all good now.

Hey #onted friends, I've added Ontario curriculum expectations across grades 1-3, 4-6 and 7-8. Please share with anyone who might find this useful :) docs.google.com/presentation/d… docs.google.com/presentation/d… docs.google.com/presentation/d…

How many ways can you show one quarter? Gr 7 Ss @LeslieThomasSch used a fraction square to shade 1/4 as many different ways as they could. One question that led to lots of rich conversations. #HRCEMath @FractionTalks

@fawnpnguyen @BerkeleyEverett @Simon_Gregg I do love having kids create! I will also say that I tend to use this as a number talk/@FractionTalks pretty early on in the Gr 4 fraction work, and it really brings out some important ideas around unit fractions and equivalence. But a different purpose than your original tweet!

@MarieMcMB @FractionTalks is literally my next stop after the physical tangrams. So great for reasoning! ...and yes, some students want a strategy that works every time. I like hearing all strategies and comparing, noticing, generalizing...😍

You can use any other blocks you want, as long as your triangle includes those three. Incidentally, these blocks are on a pretty great sale on Amazon right now! amazon.com/Math-Love-Upsc…

@FractionTalks I use the number talk routine: silent think time, turn over the copy of their image when they have something to show and discuss with a partner, pair and share, then a few volunteers share to the class

Question(s) for the #fractiontalks community: When you started using the images, what big questions did you have? What do you know now that would help someone starting out? What “pro-tips” do you have to share? #MTBoS #iteachmath #fractiontalk

@SPFurman17 This is all helpful. How do you structure the prompt? Individual think time? In groups? Do you have a set structure?

@FractionTalks Get your Ss engaged with the talks….I have mine select the numerical value for the shaded area or select the section that we will talk about…..feels more organic that way
