Math is Messy!

imageThe students and I  have embarked on a journey into fractions during math time in class!  Take a look as we learn along the way to attaining proficiency in our Number and Operations-Fraction standards and make connections to our previous learning Aha #1 and Aha #2 to build a pa’a kahua!

Some imagestudent mana’o nui “ahas”… “Learning is not neat, it is messy!” (see some of our “messy” moments in photos),  “we can use what we know about fractions in our life, especially when we look for great sales while shopping”,  “there are many ways to come to an answer”, “there are patterns everywhere, if you can find the pattern, you can solve anything”, “we can all have different ways to reach the same goal, and it’s ok, like makawalu!” Finding connections make learning relevant!  Lawe i ka ma’alea a kü’ono’ono – Take wisdom and make it deep!  Go FISH! Go…Swim Strong!  Tune in again to see those “eyes twinkle” with more aha moments!
