We may think we’re pretty smart, but in fact we have very little notion of how humans learn. Kids know: They play games. Until, that is, they go to school. That’s when the games stop. And often, so does the learning.That was the sad panorama painted b

Math Teachers -Please help solve a debate!

by Nicole

Jul 29

Although this is a very simple problem, myself and another educator have debated the answer. It's the simple ones sometimes! We need the wisdom of other math teachers to help us out. This is all in fun! Please solve: 8/2(2+2)

MTA PEMDAS is an acronym that summarizes the order in which parentheses, exponentiation, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction are performed in an arithmetic or algebraic expression.

8/2(2+2)=8/2(4)=8/2*(4)=8/2*4=4*4=16

You can put this in a calculator that allows expression entry and verify that result is 16.

BA Well...it depends on what is meant because the notation isn't all that clear. IF it means the fraction 8 over 2 (or 8 divided by 2) multiplied by the sum of 2 and 2, yes--the answer is 16. If it means 8 divided by twice the sum of 2 and 2, the answer is 1. The calculator is assuming the first.

It would be much better to write this problem...See More

Maths lesson plans

by Greg

Mar 17

Hello, I was just wondering what everyone's opinion was on when you need to refresh lesson plans and learning materials. For instance, is it okay to use the same lesson plans year after year or is it a good idea to refresh them every year?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Greg

Rich I agree with Betty. A little addition or tweak builds on the existing great lesson you already have. It took awhile but each year by adding a little extra the lessons I use are jam packed with more aw's and oww's that caught the students attention engaging ways.

It took awhile but each year by adding a little extra the lessons I use are jam packed with more aw's and oww's that caught the students attention engaging ways. An example of a daily lesson that morphed included a starting infinite welcoming kiosk,with a daily quote, attention grabbing pictures, daily calendar of events, starter instructions followed by: a bell ringer, week at glance, lesson objective with standard, probing questions, flash cards(accessing prior knowledge) anticipatory set, direct/guided instruction, infused cognitive overload breaks, active learning strategies, check for understandings, a second set of flash cards, differentiated learning opportunities, independent practice set and finishing with a ticket out. This lesson morphed each year to the above existing product of my daily lesson components. These were the standard lessons in addition to the various hands on days as needed each week.

Firoza Ahmed Yes it would be a great idea to refresh your lessons because all the children learn at different pace so you need to adjust your lessons and resources according to their needs and prior knowledge that they have.
