I am excited to be sharing a year’s long project in a PreK classroom. I hope to see you Friday at 1:30!

That’s a lot of information to investigate.

That colors seemed important and I wonder if there is only 1 color in a cup,there is more than one in a cup and I wonder how many, I wonder where the bread ties came from…

I had to look them up to introduce myself to them. Please say more about their experiences!

Placement/location of the 0?

Q3: I think about ways students can share their thinking besides words, like coming up to show or by using gestures.

Because it was a bed, there couldn’t be any cracks or spaces for them to fall through. So sides and angles came into play.

Thank you for hosting.

That’s awesome! We did that in first grade! For those Ss we had intros about how football works, how pts can be scored, and how many pts tds, fgs, and extra points are worth. And some1st grade fans understood about safeties and 2 point conversions etc and included this possibilities. #ElemMathChat

Libo! A4 I love these! We did this in PreK. After reading a book about a puppy trying to build himself a bed out of blocks, students designed beds that would fit their puppy. #ElemMathChat

I agree. Noticing is so powerful.

Hello. I’m Becky Holden. I am an early mathematics supporter of students and teachers. My goal for 2025 is to continue supporting mathematics while being certain to invite everyone.

#2 After playing, creating, composing, building shapes or looking closely at attributes during the same and different routine involving shapes, go for shape hunts in and outside of the classroom. #ElemMathChat

#3 I’m thinking right now about football with the playoffs Finding the difference in scores between teams can influence whether a team punts or goes for 4th down or settles for a field goal or tries for the touchdown or even a 2 point conversion. #elemmathchat

Q5: I’m late to this conversation so apologies. One book I love is Seven Little Rabbits. “7 little rabbits go walkin down the road” and 1 by 1, a rabbit gets tired and goes down to Mole’s. 7-0, 6-1.. counting, combos, algebraic thinking. For 3s, PreK, K… stuffed animals and rekenreks.

Diagonal?

Arranged horizontally…left to right? Right to left?

For me it says I need permission to open. Fyi.

Could that be like measurement division, like having a length of ribbon and cutting pieces of a certain length until you can’t any more?

Couldn’t 17-10, in a certain context, be that you have 17 jellybeans, I have 10, and wondering what is the difference which is to match your 17 against my 10 and you having 7 more or me having 7 less?

It is! And I hope all is also well with you. Let’s catch up.
