Just created a 3D-printed math manipulative to help students grasp place value! Perfect for hands-on learning and making abstract concepts more tangible. Can’t wait to see how it transforms the classroom experience! Sashari Caretti Lindsay Brannon, Ed.S., NBCT Cullman City Board of Education westelemcullman

After moving through the CPA model for 2x1 to 4x1 digit ✖️, ss are returning back to concrete models as we begin working with greater magnitude for 2x2 digit ✖️. These manipulatives prepare students for the area model & partial products. ⁦EastElementary⁩ ⁦AMSTI Athens State

Teachers, ss,&coaches were all in the floor working on math strategies! We transitioned from manipulatives to pictorial area models today. Discourse,accuracy checks,& making sense of structure were on display! ⁦⁦Mrs. Paige Hamm, Ed.S., N.B.C.T.⁩ ⁦⁦EastElementary⁩ ⁦AMSTI Athens State

It was a great day to have a Math PBL Game Day in class! Students created football field area models, solved multi-step problems involving concession stands, matched models/expressions/products, and had a scavenger hunt around the room! 🏈

Students partitioned sweet treats into equal groups! They learned about dividends, divisors, and quotients. The next step is to master making area models with division. #whole #part #part #candycorn EastElementary

We read one of my favorites; “A Remainder of One,” then had fun in math by dividing candy corn into equal groups to find quotients and remainders! Long division, here we come! 🎃 EastElementary

Supporting the final push before ACAP using elements of the AMSTI Geometry Experience. SS used tools to build polygons &construct arguments to defend their models.These task cards naturally allow SS to use multiple student math practices EastElementary AMSTI Athens State Lindsay Brannon, Ed.S., NBCT
