We're getting back into the swing of things in my classroom. Throughout the year, we've been using the strategies draw/write/symbolize to help us think/prove/discuss our mathematical thinking. Our discussions were a bit rusty after the 17 day break (seriously? THANK YOU CALENDAR COMMITTEE!). So, we made this chart as a quick review for how to use the draw/write/symbolize strategies. I used tree stickers and weather stamps in the "problem" I modeled for the class. We drew those, wrote a sentence and a number sentence and thought of different ways to symbolize.
My students frequently use a similar form to draw/write/symbolize to help them think/prove/discuss different problems that we are working on in the classroom. You can click on the image below if you'd like to download it.
I've been working on my presentation for the Everything's Primary Expo in February. Will post more about that soon...
