EquatIO - Math made digital Mathematical Mindsets: Unleashing Students' Potential through Creative Math, Inspiring Messages and Innovative Teaching - Jo Boaler, Carol Dweck There is much concern over the fact that U.S. students perform so poorly in math compared to students in other countries. Scores of students hate and fear math, students leave school lacking a comprehension of basic mathematical concepts, and the numbers of students choosing math at the college level are in sharp decline. Much of this is blamed on the fact that students just don’t like the subject. Mathematical Mindsets: Unleashing Students' Potential through Creative Math, Inspiring Messages and Innovative Teaching (Wiley, Jossey-Bass, 978-0-470-89452-1, November 2015, US $19.95)addresses this issue by giving practical advice and activities for teachers and parents that is all grounded in the latest research. Until now, research on mathematics learning and the brain has been communicated through research journals. New brain research on Mathematics LearningThe Power of Mistakes and StruggleWhat Is Math Really?

Yummy Math Times Tables Tracker Why is it necessary? Once children have a solid understanding of place value and are ready to manipulate numbers, instant recall of times tables facts is vital to enhancing their speed and fluency in mathematics. Each year, children would come into year 4 with differing times tables knowledge. How does it work? Based on a suggestion made by Stephen Lockyer at TeachMeet Sussex, we've created an order of learning linked to different awards. When the time is up, children swap tests and mark someone else's. What do you need to use the tracker? Firstly, you need to download all the resources in this free Google Drive Folder. All the tests (and an editable version),A tracking card for children to keep (and an editable version),An editable letter to send out to parents with all the information,A class tracker for teachers to use. Also, some stickers are useful to keep children motivated.
Woot Math - Engaging, Research-based Tools for the Math Classroom Ceintures de Mesures (CM1-CM2) – Charivari à l'école Dans mes classes, convertir, comparer, additionner ou soustraire des mesures exprimées dans des unités différentes, c’est toujours compliqué et, sans ceintures, je n’arrivais pas à « emmener tout le monde ». Voilà trois ans que j’y pense mais que je ne trouve pas le temps de les formaliser. Ces ceintures de mesure étaient presque prêtes dans ma tête, j’avais déjà préparé et fait essayer pas mal de choses à mes élèves… mais il me restait à les produire. Je fonde donc beaucoup d’espoir sur ces nouvelles ceintures. Si vous n’avez jamais essayé les ceintures, pourquoi ne pas démarrer avec celle-là ? Programmation proposée Les 2 premières ceintures reprennent des compétences de CE. Voici donc les tests Je les imprime avec l’option « 4 pages par feuille ». Remarque : j’ai mis en ligne les corrections de ces tests (clic), mais je les ai protégés, pour la première fois sur ce site, par un mot de passe. Edit du 28/7 : Ne vous formalisez pas si mon mail de réponse est laconique.

Educating MrMattock Expanding on my 'recent' (haven't blogged in ages admittedly) post about different views in algebra, I have been looking at the idea of showing different expressions using diagrammatic views of sequences, and thought I would outline a few thoughts here: 1) Linear or quadratic? A really nice thing to do with pupils is to look at patterns that arise from (or generate depending on your point of view) linear sequences, compared to quadratic. Most people that know about sequences will be able to identify that the 1st, 3rd and 4th sequences are linear, because the same number of squares are added each time (the colours make this quite easy to identify), whereas in the second and third there are more squares of each colour - what is interesting though is to explore these views of the different sequences: Linear Another interesting way to look at the linear sequences is using a graph: Quadratic Or if you prefer: 2) Different forms of an expression We can show quite clearly that this is also n2 + n.
Imagine This! – George Gadanidis Loïc Rouault : Appréhender le codage en technologie Comment aborder le codage en 6ème sans ordinateur ? Comment mettre en place un projet pluridisciplinaire avec Scratch ? Loïc Rouault, enseignant de technologie au collège Sainte Croix de Châteaugiron (35) et formateur numérique revient sur les nouveaux programmes de technologie au collège. Loïc Rouault nous livre son approche du codage avec ses élèves. « L’idée est de rendre l’élève actif et partie prenante de projets où la plus-value pédagogique est importante ». Après 30 ans de carrière, l’enseignant revient aussi sur la dématérialisation continue de l’enseignement de la technologie. Quels ateliers avez-vous mis en place pour appréhender le codage au collège ? La première séance pour appréhender le codage en classe de sixième est l’une des premières fois où les élèves n’allument pas leur ordinateur ce qui ne manque pas de les étonner ! En quatrième, j’ai proposé aux élèves de créer une animation représentant un système automatisé avec Scratch. D’où vient cette approche ? Dans le Café
