“I can’t do math.” Yes I can! I will try harder. I can do it! I ask for help so I can do math. I remember strategies to use. I actually can. Take a break and come back to it.

“This is too hard. I give up!” Never ever give up! Learning is not easy - if I struggle my brain will grow. Hard just means it is a challenge. Try again! Just breathe. It’s not too hard. There’s no rush. Take your time.

“I made a mistake!” It’s good to make mistakes. We can learn something and fix it. We have erasers for that reason. We are born to make mistakes. It’s okay!

“Plan A didn’t work!” Try Plan B!

  • Is it about “FACTS” and “PROCEDURES”?
slide-24

FA C T S

  • these are examples of math facts
  • facts and procedures are important for estimations

and calculations

H O W D O W E L E A R N FA C T S ?

  • Traditional way: memory,

speed, repetition

  • Present: we want students

to use appropriate STRATEGIES

“If parents want to give their children a gift, the best thing they can do is to teach their children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort, and keep on learning. That way, their children don’t have to be slaves of praise. They will have a lifelong way to build and repair their own confidence.
