Norma's Notables 📝 for 02/17/2022

Nothing fancy just 💡 I share with teachers in my district bi-weekly, or close to that!

Content and Pedagogy

• Mathematical Discourse pdf posters

• Fraction Bingo

• Desmos arithmetic activity, "is a multi-lesson re-engagement around order of operations and structure of expressions, intended for 9th graders who have not learned it successfully prior to high school." - I think good for MS too!

• Desmos compare/contrast solutions to multi-step equations activity

• Next-Generation Personal Finance NGPF Financial Algebra curriculum as DESMOS collection

• Lovely blog post from @Amie Albrecht "Teaching through listening" - ponders "What does listening require from us?" and "If I’m meant to be listening, why am I still talking?"
