Fall! It's here - still super hot in Austin but hoping it will cool down soon.
Love me some season changing, even if it's only in my house :)

Shifting the way we view the teaching of mathematics.
@pwharris.bsky.social@pwharris.bsky.socialIt’s Dig Pink night! Developing Mathematical Reasoning grades 6-8 arrived just in time! Two math teaching parents - what a great family Brianna!
@pwharris.bsky.socialCounting is more than reciting number names.
When students understand the big ideas and strategies behind counting, they can make sense of why counting works—not just repeat the sequence.
Counting is figure-out-able. 🔢

@pwharris.bsky.socialWhat can Emmy Noether teach us about persistence, mathematical thinking, and figuring things out—even when the odds aren’t in your favor?
Her story is one you won’t want to miss. Read the latest *Figures Who Figured It Out* blog! 👇

@pwharris.bsky.socialHey, teachers! The Developing Mathematical Reasoning: 6–8 Companion book is here, and I want to tell you all about it!
Join me for a webinar where we’ll celebrate the new book and talk about what it has to offer.
Save your spot! 👇
@pwharris.bsky.socialHow could you use this to connect multiplication, division, and area?
Students fill in the blanks and discuss as a class.

@pwharris.bsky.socialIt's time for #MathStratChat!
Rules: post your favorite or a clever solution! It's also fun to comment on other's strategies.
Tell us about your reasoning.
Like/share so others can see!

@pwharris.bsky.socialShout-out to my son Craig!
Catch this week's podcast episode for a dive into why 'thinking land' is so important and how to keep your students there.

@pwharris.bsky.socialThere is a simple litmus test for everything we can do in a classroom.
Will this promote or discourage thinking?
@pwharris.bsky.socialNice proportional reasoning with percents Erica! Percents are Figureoutable!

@pwharris.bsky.socialI'm in LOVE!
Grandchild number 3 and she is a cutie.
I'm not getting to hold near enough cuz hubby has been sick and we don't want to infect anyone. Come on hubs! Get better ;)

@pwharris.bsky.socialOnce students understand the structure of our number system, they can use that understanding to reason about teen numbers, twenties, thirties, and beyond—not just memorize a sequence of names.

Would you rather is such a great routine to get students thinking and sharing about mathematical relationships.
Which is your favorite and why?
@pwharris.bsky.socialThe creator of NumberClub in London with the hubs and me a few years ago.
If you haven't checked out NumberClub yet, it's worth it!

@pwharris.bsky.socialIT’S HERE!
October 1st just got a whole lot better because the audiobook is officially OUT NOW!
After all the recording, editing, behind-the-scenes moments, and SO much work… you can finally listen!
Grab your headphones and come math with me! 🎧

@pwharris.bsky.socialHow we define 'explicit teaching' is often not explicit. And that causes a lot of problems.

@pwharris.bsky.socialNice proportional reasoning Shawn! Cross multiply and divide would miss all of that lovely thinking. Well done!
