What an amazing day with the brilliant educators of Madison County diving into choral counting and counting collections for upper elementary! 🎶🔢 So much math joy & collaboration. Because when it comes to learning...every count counts! @AmstiUAH @MadCoSchools @LizHughes77

Shoutout to an incredible coaching lab experience! 🤩 We dove into partial quotient models, scaffolded academic needs of individual learners, and integrated authentic computer science with input/output tables! @AMSTI4all @AmstiUAH @hgesliltrojans @MadCoSchools @AlabamaAchieves

My new favorite word: sonder. It's the profound awareness that every person you encounter has experienced a lifetime of hopes, fears, loves, and heartaches that you'll never know. Each moment of sonder is a reminder to appreciate how little we truly grasp about others' lives.

The first session in the Math Learning Lab took place today at Lakewood! This will be a place for teachers to be a learner of standards & manipulatives! Their math coach is amazing and leading the charge! 💙🦁💙 @GoLakewoodLions @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE

Time to get this coaching cycle started! These teachers sorted student work based on a rubric and are making next steps for Tier 1 based on strategies! 👏🏻 Thank you @dalehancock from @ALSDEOSI for being a think partner @GoLakewoodLions! @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves

An eager student not wanting math to end! Fifth graders were rocking identifying patterns and making generalizations today in a decimal choral count! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @McDonnellEleme2 @AMSTI4all @AmstiUAH @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE

“Math Isn’t Scary” Math Night @lfespanthers was a smashing success!!! Learning was spooktacular and the hype was all about students and their wickedly, awesome school that loves them so much! 🧡🎃🧡 @tiffanycarp @MadCoSchools @AMSTI4all @AmstiUAH @AlabamaAchieves

After intentionally planning number talks with every grade level, building base math coach at @GoLakewoodLions is on a co-teaching number talk tour with these dynamic educators! Keep rocking it, Mrs. Jones! 🎸🤘 @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE @HSVk12

Grade level coaching cycles be like 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! This fourth grade team and their math coach are on 🔥🔥🔥 @GoLakewoodLions! Multi-digit multiplication here we come! @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE @HSVk12

@jsharbin1 @AmstiUAH @McDonnellEleme2 @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE @jsharbin1 - Of course! DM your email and I will send them to you.

@rtc0016 @AmstiUAH @McDonnellEleme2 @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE Do you mind sharing the recording sheet? I’ve been working on counting collections with 3-5 teachers. I have one for 5th but wanted something more for 3rd.

From multiplicative counting collections in a Follow-Up training @AmstiUAH to introducing counting collections in her classroom, Mrs. Baker @McDonnellEleme2 is engaging students to make additive and multiplicative connections! 🎉 @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE

Today, this mathematician told me, “It’s simple math.” What a shining moment @McDonnellEleme2 when a student beams with joy to share their thinking! Before I knew it, he walked up in the front of the classroom smiling no ear to ear! @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @OMIALSDE

Two amazingly, talented rockstar educators!!

Computational thinking at its best!!! Way to go, Endeavor Elementary! @AMSTI4all @AmstiUAH

What a fabulous day for a follow-up content session! We dove into…contexts that elicit different models, multiplicative counting collections, numberless story problems, making connections to place value division strategies, & analyzed/sorted/sequenced student work! 🤩 @AmstiUAH

Coaching Academy 3 is a WRAP @AmstiUAH! We’ve explored authentic integration of DLCS in mathematics, standards-based unit planning & data protocols! Together, they are elevating student success alongside teachers and fostering a love for math! @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @lmcd50

Summer training put into action! 🎯 Making sense of the REAL multiplication chart and its impact of two dimensions on the product! Visualizing the product is helping build fluency in (X) facts! Shoutout to Courtney Curl in @HSVk12! 🤩👏🏻 @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves

These building-based math coaches are blazing new trails in coaching! They are creating a sequence of steps for someone else to follow! Cultivating computational thinkers in mathematics classrooms here we come! @AmstiUAH @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @lmcd50

Coaching Academy 3 @AmstiUAH is underway! What a fantastic day of learning and partnerships with these ROCKSTAR building-based math coaches! 🤩 @AMSTI4all @AlabamaAchieves @lmcd50

Thank you to all the teachers who participated in this training with us! We’re all learning together each and every day! We can always grow more by taking the time to discuss the components of our “Conceptual Framework” and understand the importance of the connections they share!
