    The Build Math Minds Podcast

    The Build Math Minds podcast is for my fellow Recovering Traditionalists out there. If you don’t know whether or not you are a Recovering Traditionalist, here’s how I define us. We are math educators who used to teach math the traditional way. Flip lesson by lesson in the textbook, directly teaching step-by-step how to solve math problems. But now, we are working to change that to a style of teaching math that is fun and meets our students where they are at, not just teaching what comes next in the textbook. We want to encourage our students to be thinkers, problem solvers, and lovers of mathematics..we are wanting to build our students math minds and not just create calculators. If that is you, then this podcast is for you.

    Episode 163 - Helping Your Students to Be a Successful Student Mar 31, 2024
    Show notes

    There are lots of Problems of Teaching when you are helping young kids learn mathematics. One of the hardest ones is helping your students to be successful learners, constantly trying to manage a large classroom of students who often are not very productive. In the book Teaching Problems and the Problems of Teaching by Dr. Magdalene Lampert, there was a line in the chapter Teaching Students to Be People Who Study in School, that still has me thinking: "...if we view students' productive or unproductive actions in the classroom as expressions of who they think they are, then classroom management merges with something that might be called 'academic character education.'" That whole section of the book got me thinking of things you could do in your classroom to help your students be students who study mathematics, which in turn helps them to be successful learners. Listen for my 4 ways to help your students be successful learners of mathematics. Get any links mentioned in this video at BuildMathMinds.com/163

    Episode 162 - Approximation, Precision, & Accuracy in Measurement Mar 24, 2024
    Show notes

    In this video I'm sharing a part of a book that made me go "Hmm, I've never really thought about that!" It has to do with just how precise we can actually be when measuring items. One of the Standards of Mathematical Practice is "Attend to Precision" which is about being precise in all mathematical vocabulary and content, but just how precise should we make students be when it comes to measurement?

    Episode 161 - A candy bar is better than a pie…when it comes to fractions Mar 17, 2024
    Show notes

    I love pies, Pecan Pie especially, but I don't love them during math time. Pies, well circles in general, are an overused visual when it comes to the teaching of fractions. In this video we take a look at visual fraction models that are much better to use and will be helpful to your students as they progress into other mathematical concepts like percentages, ratios, etc. Get any links mentioned in this video at BuildMathMinds.com/161

    Episode 160 - Tips for Getting Kids to Talk in Math Class Mar 03, 2024
    Show notes

    After the 2024 Virtual Math Summit, there was so much mention of using Sentence Stems I wanted to dig a bit deeper into them. In my research I stumbled upon an old blog post by one of my favorite Math-y people, Sara Van Der Werf. In this podcast episode I'm sharing a piece of her blog post that talks about one tweak you can make to Think/Pair/Share (or Turn & Talk) to help get your students more engaged in the math discussion.

    Episode 159 - The Number Strings Queens Feb 25, 2024
    Show notes

    Cathy Fosnot and Pam Harris are The Queens of Number Strings (or Problem Strings as Pam would call them). I'm way too excited about the fact they are teaming up to do a one-day workshop all about using Problem Strings for Automaticity, Fluency, and Beyond. If you've been doing number strings and want to go more in depth on how to use them in your classroom, I highly recommend going to this workshop.

    Before the 2024 Virtual Math Summit starts next week, enjoy this preview of a Pre-Summit Session by Rosalba Serrano on Preventing Teacher Burnout. Rosalba shares a ton of information and ideas to help you with burnout but I specifically picked this clip because one of the ideas she shared is one that my family uses a lot: Control the Controllables.
