New workshop just dropped:
Developing Mathematical Reasoning in Companion Animals. 🐾
Because reasoning > memorizing… even for pets.
Happy April Fool’s Day! 😄

Money + give & take = fantastic strategy Allison!
How do you reason about problems like these?

2^2 = 4
4 times another 2 = 8 so 2^3 = 8
8x2 = 16, 2^4 = 16
16x2 = 32, 2^5 = 32
32x2 = 64, 2^6 = 64 --> 6th power
or
I know 2^2 = 4 and 4^3 = 64, so (2^2)^3 = 2^6 bc multiply exponents.
or
I know 2^3 = 8 and 8^2 = 64, so (2^3)^2 = 2^6

320 divided by 8
(320 + 40)/8
320/8 + 40/8
40 + 5 --> 45
Decompose & distribute for the win!
Or
Dividing by 8 is same as cutting in half 3 times:
360/2 = 180
180/2 = 90
90/2 = 45
Works bc (1/2)^3 = 1/8

Diagram showing nested ovals progressing to the right, showing Development of Mathematical Reasoning: Counting strategies --> Additive Reasoning --> Multiplicative Reasoning --> Proportional Reasoning --> functional reasoning.
What if the goal of teaching math is to develop mathematical reasoning... instead of getting answers to math questions?

Here's some visual number lines to help figure out 49 bags of 27 m&ms. We know 50 x 27 will be half of 100 x 27, or 10 times 5 x 27...
Then to figure out 49 bags, we subtract 1 bag of 27 from 1350.
Number lines: can show 1350 – 27 then – 7, OR
1350 – 30 then + 3

Ratio table showing 1 - 27 2 - 54 10 - 270
Continued calculations in ratio table to figure out 5 bags of 27 m&ms
Pam is engaging us in "real math math-ing"
Figuring out how many m&ms in 2, 10, 5 bags if 1 bag has 27 m&ms
How did you do it?
How could you??
Making the suggestion of several different strategies opens up your reasoning.

If you have 35 negatives and take away 37 negatives, you are left with –2 negatives, or the opposite of 2 negatives.
Therefore you have 2 positives.

This is MathStratChat 👀
One problem.
Many strategies.
Reasoning over memorization.
This week’s problem shows you how.

I used to love replying to these #MathStratChat posts when I used to still be on Twitter.
Glad that I can participate on Bluesky!

Hi, I’m Pam 👋
I believe math is FigureOutAble—not memorized, not rushed, not stressful.
Around here, I'm talking real student thinking, powerful strategies, and math that actually makes sense.
Follow along… this is just the beginning 💡

I’m thinking about 4/5 as 80%
Then 7/8 of 80 would be 70
And 70% is 0.7
So the product is 0.7.
