Teachers building community and engaging in powerful science discourse. #STATCAST21 @ActivateScience

Science is everywhere! Stay tuned!

Taking time to look at mathematics outside the school walls.

There are reasons for our students lagging behind students from around the world. The math of our generation and those before us isn’t serving today’s students well. usatoday.com/story/news/edu…

STEAM Engagement at Quarton Elementary. Sincere curiosity at its best to its the STEAM Leadership Academy @baltzyworld @SupportBEF #STEM @QuartonBears

Feeling inspired by all the educators who shared, collaborated, and created at our BPS NPDL unconference! #BPSLearners @BirminghamPS

Representations help students learn the concepts in order to understand how the procedures work.

Some of our youngest scientists at work! @BirminghamPS @Science_BPS

@Desmos is an amazing tool used in math classrooms. Check out their webinar.

Just released the WALO Print, resulting from linear, quadratic and absolute value functions (Algebra I and II) @thediarrablu This work also informs my work education. Teaching Mathematics w Art improves learning for students. #fashiontech #diarrablumath @joboaler @KnowlesTeachers

A few of the Sam Fam @HarlanElem are moving on to the next stage of their life cycle. @Science_BPS

Friday night video #4 looks at the progression of division. What does “guzinta” mean? @gfletchy highlights the conceptual understanding needed to make sense of division vimeo.com/153668928?ref=…

Great moments happen when a kindergarten student @HarlanElem stops to teach me all about salmon types on his way to class! Way to go @HarlanHeroes @skefgen!#bpslearners

How do Ss make sense of multiplication? How can we use concrete and representational models to help understanding? Friday night videos continue! Check out video #3, Progression of Multiplication by @gfletchy at vimeo.com/149428217?ref=…

Friday video #2 - Adding and subtracting involves more than memorizing facts. Check out the Progression of Addition and Subtraction video by @gfletchy at vimeo.com/157768846 @BirminghamPS #BPSLearners

First grade @QuartonBears mathematicians building conceptual understanding by modeling story problems. @BirminghamPS #BPSLearners

Who doesn’t love Friday night videos? Check out Early Number and Counting, part of @gfletchy progression series at vimeo.com/210115211 #BPSLearners

@togetherfortwo Yes, it does!!

Guess that answers our question @ml_tindall 😂

Math quote of the day- S:I can use a tens frame & then I don’t count cuz I KNOW that looks like an 8. Me:how do you know that?? S:cuz we learned this so much in kindergarten!! (That is the correct answer when your 1st grade teacher was also your kdg teacher!!)😂😂

Teachers thinking deeply about mathematics instruction for all students. #equityandaccess #mathidentity #BPSLearners

Using the 5 practices in a 5th grade math lesson led to uncovering misconceptions, building conceptual understanding, and making connections. Anticipate, Monitor, Select, Sequence, and Connect are powerful teacher tools! #BPSLearners #5practices @Math_BPS
