Number Sense Kickstart Day #3 - Having a record of what your students understand
Most textbooks are focused on answer-getting so their assessments are also focused on just answer-getting. That doesn’t tell you anything about what your students understand, only what they can do. To ensure you are building your students’ understanding of numbers, you need some way to keep track of what they are understanding. It’s Day 3 of the Number Sense Kickstart and today is all about recording what your students understand about the 8 number sense concepts. If you have taken The Flexibility Formula course, you have detailed information and observation sheets to help you do this. If not, Christina Tondevold gives you a simplified way to record what you are noticing about your students’ number sense. Tune in to listen or even go watch this episode over on the Build Math Minds’ YouTube channel so you can see part of the recording sheet: https://www.youtube.com/buildmathminds Have you joined the Kickstart yet?
