Mathematics is so much more than just getting the answers.  Answers are important, but that really doesn’t tell you what your students UNDERSTAND about math, it only tells you what they can DO.   If you want to see what your students understand there are 8 number sense concepts that are the root of understanding numbers.  It’s Day 2 of our Number Sense Kickstart and in today’s episode Christina Tondevold is detailing each of those 8 number sense concepts.  This is the longest video of our Kickstart and if you’ve taken Christina’s online course for teachers, The Flexibility Formula, you already know this information and can skip today’s episode and just do the tip for today: Determine what your students actually need to understand to do the lesson for tomorrow.  If you haven’t heard of these 8 number sense concepts before, take a listen.
