Sorry, almost forgot! Rob, Secondary Math Specialist from Charlotte, you had me at SMPs! #teachnvchat
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:37 PM EDT

Hey Rob! I figured this one'd be right up your alley! how are you? #teachnvchat

A1 - SMPs are most important part of CCSS. Gave clarity on vision for math teaching in @CharMeckSchools - gets away from memorization! #teachnvchat

I'm sorry you're not feeling 100%. I stayed home yesterday ... What run this Saturday? Have tons of fun! #teachnvchat

SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:41 PM EDT

For sure. My new (last year) school used Singapore Math materials and thinking and it all goes along perfectly with the SMPs. #teachnvchat

  Question 2 #teachNVchat
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:45 PM EDT

I would say #3 is most challenging for kinders at this point in the year. We're still learning how to discuss anything. #teachnvchat
In reply to @teachNVACS
robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:45 PM EDT
A2 - For Ss, still #1 - even though @joboaler Mathematical Mindsets work helps a lot! For Ts (me anyway), #4 - still getting used to modeling/manipulatives for HS. #teachnvchat

  Question 2 #teachNVchat
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:46 PM EDT

Cool. I saw a couple demos at an @ascd conference a couple years ago. They have great stuff! #teachnvchat

SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:47 PM EDT

I was just thinking the same thing. I'm psyched to learn from you but assumed there'd be some other folks too We have a private #teachnvchat
In reply to @robertleichner
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:48 PM EDT

I was going to continue my response to say #1 for all Ss. I can trick Kinders into some perseverance but not all! #teachnvchat

Hey everyone! Greg- K, MD. Checking in late for some time tonight. Hope all are well. #teachNVchat
robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:48 PM EDT

For kinders yes...especially the valid reasoning part! My K child is great at arguing, the evidence is often lacking though :) #teachnvchat
In reply to @SaraHolm15, @teachNVACS
jazzmeister2013 Oct 19 @ 10:49 PM EDT

I would agree. Definitely a process in K to develop this practice. #teachNVchat
In reply to @SaraHolm15, @teachNVACS
robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:49 PM EDT

Haha...and a lot of times when they will persevere, the make sense of problems gets them. NOT WORD PROBLEMS!!! (But life is word problems :) #teachnvchat

I've seen some Singapore Math videos where @etahand2mind Cuisenaire Rods are amazing for advanced math #teachnvchat
In reply to @robertleichner, @joboaler, @ETAhand2mind
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:51 PM EDT

I can't believe you have a daughter in K!! The Cuisenaire rods really help with the evidence based talk. #teachnvchat

You met @JosephAlmeidaMA through @AAEdVoice right? He was HUGE on Singapore Math! #teachnvchat

Hi Sara! PD all day tomorrow. Ss are out. Can sleep in for a few more minutes in the morning. #teachNVchat

Hi Greg! I'm Rob from CLT...Secondary Math, but I'm fascinated by K-2 math. #teachnvchat
In reply to @jazzmeister2013
jazzmeister2013 Oct 19 @ 10:53 PM EDT

We have been working with shapes, counting sets up to 10, and comparing sets. How about you? #teachNVchat
In reply to @SaraHolm15, @teachNVACS
jazzmeister2013 Oct 19 @ 10:54 PM EDT

Hi Rob! Math at the primary level is fun, especially at the K level because it is so foundational. Secondary math? Awesome! #teachNVchat

robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:55 PM EDT
A3 - Sometimes tough in HS math (a lot of polynomial/complex # applications are stretches)...sometimes better to link to math reasoning/concepts. I think this is still ok. #teachnvchat

  Question 3 #teachNVchat
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:56 PM EDT

Oh that's us next Friday for NV Day, obviously! We are similar math-counting, writing, subitizing to 10, 2d shapes, patterns #teachnvchat
In reply to @jazzmeister2013
robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:57 PM EDT

Yes, I learned a lot about it from @Zakchamp at @NCCTM1 last year...cardinality and all that was so interesting, they don't know it from birth! I tried with my little girl! #teachnvchat

Bonus Question #teachNVchat
robertleichner Oct 19 @ 10:58 PM EDT

Samantha (my K daughter) has been starting adding/decomposing within 10...she's not allowed to use fingers in class. Thoughts? #teachnvchat
SaraHolm15 Oct 19 @ 10:58 PM EDT

I don't know him but was just checking out his youtube channel https://t.co/SMxrOUKT96 #edurockstar #teachnvchat
