Okay, I saw another one of my friends posts about the new math and how frustrating it is. Then, our districts math guru (as I like to call her), Andrea Goddard, posted this video. It is AWESOME!!!! I probably upset my friend with opinions. I hope she knows I still love her! Heres my favorite quote from the video, If you learn math in a way that was ALWAYS this way, ALWAYS follow these steps, then you never learn how to use that flexible thinking and how to pull numbers apart and put them back together, or how to use shortcuts. He also said that parents complaining they dont get it and cant help their child, just proves his point. You learned one way to do things and if it doesnt work; youre stumped. Just think how people feel that never got the one way that was taught years ago, but never taught another way! vimeo/m/110807219
