I created free sets of base-10 blocks that can be used in Google Slides to help your students collaborate with "hands-on" math during #distancelearning. Thanks to @brainingcamp for the images. Please share with anyone that might like it. #onlinelearning docs.google.com/presentation…

I'm running a free monthly series tackling your biggest challenges with distance learning. Sessions will be recorded and I will alternate between morning and evening to accommodate folks in different time zones. Register: tinyurl.com/dlchallenges #distancelearning #onlineteaching

I am leading a PD on math routines in a remote environment. I teach 4th grade. Did any lower elementary teachers try out math routines remotely? How did it go? Any insights, challenges, ideas? #iteachmath #MTBoS

Found a way to get @Inv3_Math power polygons (thanks to @MikeFlynn55 creating them for our grad class) and quadrilateral/triangle shape cards on google slides for students to move around and sort by attributes. #iteachmath #MTBoS docs.google.com/presentation…

Creating online activities for students that are hands on and not just worksheets is challenging! Here is my first week of 4th grade geometry unit. Feel free to use or share. #iteachmath #geometry #remoteteaching #distancelearning docs.google.com/presentation…

Saw so many ideas for starting geometry unit on my walk today. Going to send my students on a parallel and perpendicular lines scavenger hunt this week. #iteachmath #takemathoutside #mathwalk

Saw so many arrays on my walk today that would make for great number talks. #iteachmath #mathoutside #MTBoS

In my virtual math small groups tomorrow, going to try out a “which one doesn’t belong?” with fractions. This is my first attempt at making one. I think there is a reason why each doesn’t belong... #iteachmath #MTBoS

I have been using the extra time at home to gather photos for number talks. How many do you see? Look carefully. #iteachmath #MTBoS

Multiplication Challenge: Make an area model, array, or equal groups using things around your house! 🤩 @CorneliusElem #Engagement #LevelingUpOnline
Picture number talks have been working great virtually for my students. Here’s another: How many are there? #iteachmath #MTBoS

At home math challenge: Making a recipe that calls for 3/4 a cup of flour. Using the measuring cups shown, how many different ways can you think of to measure 3/4? What about 3/8? 5/8? #iteachmath #MTBoS

I love doing picture number talks with students. Couldn’t help seeing the math while baking. #iteachmath #MTBoS
