HERE'S WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING!

"My kids LOVE all your Number Talks. They especially like Find the Difference! And Make it True. Thank you!" -Susan

BENEFITS

Number Talks will get your students engaged in mathematical conversations that will increase their ability to reason mathematically as well as develop their computational fluency skills and their ability to think flexibly about numbers.

But the BEST benefit is that it will turn your reluctant mathematicians into math lovers! When students engage in this short daily activity, they communicate with their peers in a safe environment where it's okay to not be right all the time. It's okay to learn from each other. They learn to discuss various strategies and the effectiveness of those strategies. They begin to take risks. And before you know it, your students who once feared math joyfully jump into solving problems with both feet. It's so exciting to see the transformation!

========================================================================

WHY DID WE CREATE THIS RESOURCE?

A few years ago we were asked to implement number talks in our daily math instruction. After engaging our students in a few of these activities, we were hooked. Our challenge then became to create a variety of problem types in order to keep students engaged and excited about number talks. And that is when this number talk program was born.

========================================================================

THIS RESOURCE IS HELPFUL FOR:

-Busy Second Grade Teachers

-Substitute Teachers

-Special Education Teachers

-Whole Group Math Instruction

-Small-Group Math Instruction

-Math Intervention

========================================================================

FAQ

How long do number talks take?

It is best if Number Talks are done daily for between 5 and 15 minutes.

Can these number talks be displayed on an interactive whiteboard?

We have added a fully digital version of our number talks using PowerPoint for your convenience! Just display and go! Number talks made easy!

Does each month contain 20 different types of number talk activities?

Oh goodness no. That would be a bit overwhelming. We have 5 number talk activities that are repeated each week using different problems. We are all about keeping it easy for teachers and creating meaningful engagement for kids.

Do I have to print out number talk materials for each student each day?

NO! This is a whole group activity. Just display the number talk for everyone to see.

Do I need to teach the units in order?

We suggest you teach the number talks in order because they spiral and increase in difficulty.

Where are the daily lesson plans?

Daily lesson plans are in the printable version section. These are GREAT for teachers new to number talks as well as for substitute teachers.

Questions & Answers

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Compare two three-digit numbers based on meanings of the hundreds, tens, and ones digits, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
Fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need. Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, "Does this make sense?" They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems and identify correspondences between different approaches.
