Another example (that’s more complicated) These are just warm ups- the key is SEEING the patterns visually (Avoid bringing in tables in this warm up activity) #Math @fawnnguyen.substack.com

T.J. Jemison @tjmath.bsky.social · 16/10/2025

➡️ Share different student strategies and HOW they saw it.

One way to see the pattern as two rows growing

Another way to see the pattern as a rectangle with one missing

Another way to see the pattern as a square or rectangle +1

Key 👏 words 👏 DO 👏 NOT 👏 work. STOP teaching them! NO MORE CUBES (or whatever the acronym is) Teach thinking and reasoning! @amylucenta.bsky.social @gkelemanik.bsky.social #LitMath25 @nctm.org

Data which suggests teaching key words is NOT effective for helping students arrive at correct solutions.
