In the last 5 episodes we've laid out the most important strategies for students to be able to solve for all four operations. So what? In this episode Pam and Kim solve a gnarly problem to demonstrate how mathematizing can empower you and your students, and open up to the world of Real Math.
Talking Points:

  • How to use the BIG downloadable e-book
  • A gnarly problem solved using Real Math
  • It's all about efficiency and developing more sophisticated reasoning
  • Partial strategies are a great starting point but not the ending place
  • Kudos to Pam's research and thoughtfulness
  • Why does Pam seem to focus on computation?
  • What believers are saying
  • Other ways to learn with Pam
  • We can make higher math more accessible
  • BONUS: Kim's failed attempt at the standard algorithm
