AMSTI - Troy University

Summer Learning continues for our amazing educators. ☀️🧮💙

Mrs. Farmer and Ms. Freeman enjoyed the K-5 Number Sense and Number Talks Training from AMSTI.

They learned about characteristics of number sense, like flexibility and fluency, and how number talks give teachers important opportunities to facilitate the development of number sense.

They also learned the importance of teachers fostering a class environment where students feel comfortable to share their thinking, collaborate, and learn from their mistakes.

They came away more confident in their ability to facilitate number talks and with knowledge of several resources they can implement this upcoming school year!

El aprendizaje de verano continúa para nuestros increíbles educadores. ☀️🧮💙

La Sra. Farmer y la Srta. Freeman disfrutaron de la capacitación sobre Sentido Numérico y Conversaciones Numéricas (Number Talks) para los grados K-5, impartida por AMSTI.

Aprendieron sobre las características del sentido numérico —tales como la flexibilidad y la fluidez— y sobre cómo las conversaciones numéricas brindan a los maestros oportunidades importantes para facilitar el desarrollo de dicho sentido.

También aprendieron sobre la importancia de que los maestros fomenten un entorno de clase en el que los estudiantes se sientan cómodos para compartir sus razonamientos, colaborar y aprender de sus errores.

¡Regresaron con mayor confianza en su capacidad para facilitar las conversaciones numéricas y con el conocimiento de diversos recursos que podrán implementar durante el próximo año escolar!

Dedicated teachers spent their second day of summer growing their math knowledge! Who said teachers get the summer off?

When 2 locations suddenly become 3 locations because of a broken A/C, stormy weather, and the birth of the “AMSTI-Troy Shuttle Service” 😂☔🚌… you learn very quickly how flexible and dedicated math coaches truly are!

We couldn’t have asked for a better group for our OGAP Additive learning sessions. The conversations, collaboration, interaction, and commitment to learning were absolutely incredible.

So thankful for math coaches who roll with the unexpected, keep a positive attitude, and stay focused on growing together for students. ❤️➕📚

Thank you Panera Bread Enterprise for providing bagels for our math coaches in honor of Teacher Appreciation! Region 11 Math coaches are diving deep into OGAP Additive to bring research to life in classrooms!👩‍🏫👨‍🏫📚🧮

First graders at Selma Street Elementary School are working hard on missing addends!
Students played the game, “What’s Under my Thumb?” and used cubes to model their thinking! Way to go Mrs Ratcliff’s 1st graders!
