There’s been a big push to get students looking at and analyzing data. So I’m excited to share with you one of my latest What Do You Notice? posters…a poster that gives students (and their families) an opportunity to think about and share their thoughts about the math they see. For this poster, I created a simple pie graph as a fun way to show students how information can be visually organized. That said, as you’ll see in the description below, there’s a lot…
We just updated our website to make it a little easier to navigate. Check it out here (or click the logo above).
We’ve finished! And the result is an amazing virtual event for your families where they can safely engage in an unforgettable and fun math learning experience…together. How did we do it?

It’s their own personal event and I walk them through how to do it step-by-step. And now our Spanish community can join in the fun!
I hope this helps you keep families engaged in discovering the wonders of math together during this time of continued uncertainty.
Family Math Nights are usually done at school but I created one that families can do at home. This comprehensive resource includes video tutorials, check lists, materials lists, and activity sheets for four home-friendly activities for grades K-5. I’m including the video below.
