Tip Toe Through the Content • Place Value • Problem Solving • Properties
Place Value • What are the big ideas of place value? • How does having an understanding of place value help a student mathematically? • Where do we see student misconceptions with place value?
Place Value • 10, 20, 30, 1, 2 • Thirty-two but writes 3 + 2 • 408 recorded as 4008 • Reads 81 as eighteen • 69>102 because 6 and 9 are bigger than 1 and 2 • Multiplies 36x100 and gets 26 or 360 • May be able to read a number but can not make that number with pvp or in expanded form
Place Value • Regrouping confusion 22 • Reads comma as comma or adds a number to it • Rounds down by lowering digit you need • 762, 398 to 750,000 or 752,398. • 62.31to 62.2 or 62.21 • Write what you hear five hundred eleven thousand • 500,11,000 • Sixty two hundredths 6200, 62.00
Place Value • Flexibility with numbers • Number of the Day • Riddles • Arrow Math
Problem Solving • Do all of your children have a strategy? • Are the strategies flexible enough for all learners? • Can they apply it to all problems?
Properties • Why do elementary students need to learn properties? • What is the point of the properties? • Where will they see this in real life?
Properties • Commutative • Associative • Distributive • Identity
