Episode 209 - The Power of Integration - Why Teaching Number Sense Concepts Together Accelerates Learning

Are you overwhelmed thinking about trying to add in number sense activities into your already jam-packed day? In this game-changing episode, learn how to transform your math instruction by integrating number sense concepts into ONE quick activity.  The 'unspoken rule' of teaching math has been to keep each math skill in separate boxes that we teach in isolation.  Teaching in this way is one of the causes of feeling overwhelmed when teaching math.

In this episode, you'll see how to integrate math concepts into one activity using an example of Number Strings. A single 10-minute activity can simultaneously develop multiple foundational number sense concepts - from subitizing to part-part-whole thinking. Whether you teach early or upper elementary, this episode provides practical strategies to help your students develop more flexible, sophisticated mathematical thinking. Walk away with a clear approach to making your math lessons more intentional, engaging, and effective. Get any links mentioned in the episode at BuildMathMinds.com/209
