@howie_hua 7 on the left. 12 on right (3 rows of 4). 2 more rows of 4 under that. 12+8+7=27

How many cups? How did you count?

What do you notice? What do you wonder? Getting my 2nd graders connected with the ten frame on a deeper level. Revisiting Doubles. #firstdays #elemmath #seestructure #subitize

@gcouros Thanks to Kim O’Leary for all her hard work helping Team Middleton become better readers! She’s amazing!#facultyshoutouts #MiltonPS

@TracyZager I’m thinking of lifesavers or other things that make towers. Ritz crackers.

@midmathteacher @jennalaib @BerkeleyEverett @recinossuly @getting_sharper Yes, this is my cup of tea ☕️❤️

@MarkChubb3 Going to use this for a notice and wonder! Wow. So much here.

@midmathteacher This is so true! I’m exhausted by all this energy spent on trying to make an unsafe situation seem safe.

@midmathteacher I don’t see a camera on my notes app 🤷‍♀️. Am I reading this wrong?

@midmathteacher Keep me posted on this!

@gregtangmath thanks for a great morning session today! Look forward to joining the PM session at a later time.

@midmathteacher Can’t wait!!!

@JasonReynolds83 Thank you. 🙏 I needed this today!

HAPPY TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK

@midmathteacher This made me cry! Thank you 🙏

@Cunninghamelem Good luck!! 👍

Wishing Mr. Redden (soon to be Dr. Redden) good luck today at his defense!

@MarkChubb3 This is the best!

Today is my youngest son’s 9th birthday. Thanks to his hockey team for making it special!

@midmathteacher Love this ❤️

How many? How do you know? #cookiedough #howmany #mathathome

@ChrisMangano Thank you. You rock 👍

If your gym has closed, or you are practicing self isolation, or if you just don’t feel safe going to the gym... I’m offering my home training program for free for the rest of the month of March Just drop me a thumbs up 👍🏼 in the comments and I’ll get it to you

@MrsRousseauMath @GraceKelemanik @AmyLucenta @kklizotte1 Not too simple. I am thinking about the connections of the representations. I’m caught on the 5 + 6. Could you show 6 as the 5 and 1 on the ten frame? (Why the 3 and 3) Still trying to make connections myself. I like it. Way to go!

Want to try #connectingreps in Grade 1. Here's my brainstorm using ten frames. Is it too simple, or simple enough for a first pass?? Any feedback? @GraceKelemanik @AmyLucenta @kklizotte1

@pearse_margie Relating quantities to 5s and 10s. Thinking flexibility about qty in relation to multiples of 5/10, both larger and smaller than qty. Efficiency w/ other frequently occurring # like 12, 16, 24. Visualizing and composing/decomposing numbers in context is key.

I am playing around with ways to build our intuitive nature with numbers Would like your thoughts... What do you think it means to have good intuition with numbers? What impact do you think being intuitive with numbers has on success in math? #iteachmath #mtbos #elemmathchat
