A little late posting but still super important to highlight our 2nd Grade February winners. @SuttonsCorner and Ms. Sanson’s classes had the most lessons passed in @iReady math and reading. Way to go @HicksTigers !! @MatturroMEd

🔵 "Making a ten to subtract" is a powerful strategy to help students visualize subtraction facts! 🟢

Celebrating 2nd Grade @HicksTigers showing growth in their Reading and Math assessments!

💡Help your students visualize decimal place value with the Base Ten Blocks "Grid" Workspace! 🔗 💻 Share Code: Q1BBB2MN

Secondary math teachers, come learn how to use visual patterns to help students describe functions using numbers, pictures, symbols, and words. Learn more about Fawn Nguyen's (@fawnpnguyen) How To Use Visual Patterns online workshop at grassrootsworkshops.com/workshops/how-…

Multiplication is more than one method. Help students build multiple strategies using visual models like open arrays. bit.ly/4by960W #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathEd

Clothesline Math uses a string as a number line to help build number sense. Check out all of Chris Shore's free resources at clotheslinemath.com

In 1975, 22% of college students majored in education, higher than any other major. By 2015, fewer than one in 10 students are pursuing education. & with a near 50% attrition every 5 years, we have to do a better job of supporting, valuing, & paying teachers

Conceptually explore the big ideas around building and extending number knowledge from kindergarten through 2nd grade. Learn more about Graham Fletcher's @gfletchy Foundations Of Numerical Reasoning For Grades K-2 online workshop at grassrootsworkshops.com/workshops/foun…

🧩 These Linking Cube puzzles help students understand related facts, think flexibly, and develop algebraic reasoning skills! 🎉 👉 Share Code: W5GXTJFA

So much dancing and good times at the @HicksTigers ! @

It’s almost here! 🎉 The Developing Mathematical Reasoning — Daily Strategies, Tools, and Activities to Teach the Big Ideas in 6-8. Because math isn’t about memorizing steps. It’s about making sense. 💡 #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathEd

Are you an elementary teacher who want an easy number sense routine to build fluency for addition and multiplication? Learn more about Berkeley Everett's (@berkeleyeverett) How To Use Math Flips To Build Fluency online workshop at grassrootsworkshops.com/workshops/how-…

The Lethal Mutations poster below, along with each of the 5 pages can be downloaded for free on my shared drive at drive.google.com/drive/folders/… Just look in the CPD and presentations folder. Thanks once again to @C_Hendrick for inspiring a little creativity in me. #edutwitter

⏰ Tutorial Tuesday! Help your students understand elapsed time using features like the tracker, time interval pieces, and number line! 👍 💻 Explore our updated Tutorial Videos for all 18 manipulatives! bit.ly/BCTutorials

Come see Ryan and many other math thought leaders at @BuildMathMinds FREE Virtual Math Summit February 28th & March 1st! 🎉 💥Register: virtualmathsummit.com

What are practical ways teachers can support fluency development and build students’ understanding of algebraic properties? Listen in as we explore this question in our latest Rounding Up episode. bit.ly/4rz4T3O

“To become fluent readers, students need to hear models of fluent, prosodic reading & practice reading aloud with support & feedback.” Great post from Emily Badillo on lessons learned in teaching fluency. teachlikeachampion.org/blog/teaching-…

✨ Bring division to life! Place Value Disks help students visualize abstract algorithms and build conceptual understanding. 🔗

Mnemonics may help students remember a step, but they don’t help them reason. When decimals are taught through tricks instead of meaning, we undermine intuition and proportional reasoning. Link for K-2book: na2.hubs.ly/H03FRtd0 #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathEd
