Tweet Welcome to our second week of looking closely at math workshop. Get more details about my math workshop book study here. Deep Versus Shallow Math In this week's reading, I was struck by the difference between deep and shallow math. Here are some characteristics of each type of math. Shallow Math - Memorizing algorithms - Applying an algorithm (usually a word problem found on the bottom of a page full of practice for that algorithm. - Hunt & copy exercises - Plug and chug numbers - Not considering what the numbers mean - About covering the content - Teacher gives out knowledge Deep Math - Engaging, exciting, exhausting & inspiring - Pushes learners out of their comfort zone - Mental models - An understanding of a concept that can be built upon later - Discourse - Challenging tasks - Students wrestling to make sense - Content understanding - Teacher as a facilitator of learning When I was in elementary and middle school 99% of the math I did would be classified as shallow math. I was the queen of the plug and chug. I thrived on algorithms and hated "word problems". When I was in high school, it was more of the same until I got to Algebra 2 and was faced with new and challenging problems that no one had "taught" me how to solve. This took my enthusiasm for and understanding of math to an entirely new level. Math class became exciting and invigorating and for the first time I got to invent my own strategies for solving problems and compare them to my classmates. It was such a dramatic and marked change for me that it really is what sparked my interest in becoming a teacher. Now when I teach math, I try my best to keep most of what I do with my students at the deep level. Math workshop provides me with a vehicle for giving kids support solving challenging tasks. Your turn! Can you think of anything that is missing from these lists of shallow and deep math? Where did most of your own learning take place? Please respond in the comments below! Come back next week for part 3 of our Minds on Mathematics book study!

Friends... so sorry for my looooooooooooooong absence. I do have an excuse, but I won't waste precious blogging time with it! I'm back for a quick post on Partners of 10! Indiana has been hit pretty hard this Winter, so we've been super busy trying to squeeze in as much as we can with limited time! Our math focus this week was narrowed to focus primarily on Bonds/Partners of 10! First off, If you haven't introduced your kiddos to the Partners of 10 Rainbow... what are you waiting for?!?? This is SUCH an awesome visual reminder of all the different ways to make 10! I forgot to take a picture of my chart, but we made one very similar to Teri's from A Cupcake for the Teacher. Then we used her adorable freebie to reinforce the skill the next day! Click the freebie below to head over to her blog and pick it up! The next day, we got busy using a Ten Frame to show our Partner's of 10. Not sure who had the original idea to make a GIANT ten frame for the kids to stand in... but THANK YOU (if it was your idea, please claim it so I can link to you!) The kids LOVED this activity and it was such an engaging way for them to reinforce this skill! I made a ten frame out of masking tape on the floor (sorry, nothing fancy) and called a few kids up by name to come stand in the 10 frame. We discussed how many spaces were filled, then we counted how many spaces were empty. Then, I matched their tens frame up on a teaching chart. I just drew a large ten frame and used post-it notes to fill in the boxes. I did this so that when the kids sat back down to record their answers, they would still have a visual of the ten frame. Students used the visual to shade in a ten frame and write the Partner of 10 equation that matched. I got this recording sheet from the fabulous Printable Princess. It is part of her free winter pack and worked amazingly with this activity. Head to her store to pick up the freebie and be sure to Go Follow Her on Facebook! So there you have it! It's nice to be back in blogging world. I hope to be back soon! :)
