Building comprehensive math plans (proficiency maps, unit plans, etc.) is about constructing a robust learning journey, not just covering topics, domains, and standards. #mathlearning #mathinstruction #math

Got a bunch of LEGO® Bricks from @drdelarocker today in the mail. I can’t wait to use them in my math instruction class. Concrete manipulatives are so important for creating context and interest for learners and so many kids love LEGO® Bricks. Myself included. #AcademicMastodon #PhDLife #ConcreteManipulatives #MathInstruction #TeachingToys #TheyReallyAreForWork 😏

Two more weeks in the semester. Today is one of my favorite classes to teach in my math instruction course: data analysis. So many possibilities for engaging children as early as kindergarten in this. Then we talk about geometry. Fun night ahead. I hope students show up. Lol. #AcademicMastodon #PhDLife #MathInstruction #Teaching #MathManipulatives #PreServiceTeachers 🎓💻 🟢 🟪 🔶 🔺
