How often do you ask kids to estimate?

How often do you ask kids to estimate?

Nov 11, 2022

If you aren’t already prioritizing estimation in your class, you will be surprised to find out how important this habit of mind is for developing number sense, spatial reasoning, and problem solving. Did you know that kids with good estimation skills tend to recall basic facts well?

I’m lucky that this is my fourth year learning with you and every single time I have so many takeaways that I’m instantly stimulated again. More, more, more…I can’t get enough!

Kelly Davis, Math Coach

The session was great; exactly what that team needed. You were dead on with every one of your moves! It really has been a pleasure to work with you, both for the board event and this last provincial event… I will find more pretexts to work with you again!

Lynn Charbonneau, CSDCEO, Canada

I’ve always found your work tremendously helpful — especially using your Content Coaching book when I first started as a math coach! It quickly became my bible for coaching interactions.

Tor Ormseth, El Rancho USD/CSU Fullerton

Your work with Monroe has been invaluable! You have challenged us to think in ways we have never been challenged before and it could not have come at a more opportune time. This is the start of something big. Thank you for all you do!

Meghan Gibson, Coach, Monroe, MI

I am so nourished every time I have a chance to work with you. Your level of respect all students and your ability to engage them at their varied levels of understanding is so inspiring -but it doesn’t feel like you are the only one who can do it. You build community and get people working together to build deep thinking and understanding with all students and adults.

Holly, Hatch, Principal, Somerville, MA

I have reexamined just about every aspect of my teaching and the way I think about mathematics. I have realized that I have always been good at applying algorithms and procedures but I never really had the understanding of mathematics that I want my students to have. I cannot tell a lie, this type of reaction has left me uncomfortable at times….and yet I am loving every minute of it.

Teacher, Byram Hills Central School District

Thank you SO much for ALL the insight you provided on how I could better reach, and therefore teach, our group of students. It was really an amazing experience being able to work with you, and learn and grow throughout the year. It helped me become 100,000,000 times more reflective than if I were to have been left alone this year without someone to guide my teaching firsthand. I could not thank you enough for all the attention you put into each of us.

Ayesha Fahmin, Bronx Bridges HS, NYC

I have been transformed by the work you’ve done with our team. It didn’t always ‘feel’ comfortable but it did ‘feel’ necessary. I have such an immense respect for the work you’ve done with our team and Thursday’s session was a transformative session, for me, because it pushed my thinking to levels I was not aware I could reach regarding this difficult work in which we are engaged. So…thank you very much! I am deeply appreciative of where you’ve moved me!

Joan Mosely, Leadership Coach, NYC

I just wanted to thank-you so much for leading such an awesome institute. I really appreciate how you elevated our thinking and pushed us to deeper levels of inquiry and reflection when it came to considering how we design and approach our teaching. The very hands-on, explorative, student-focused approach is something I will be taking away with me. I feel like I was able to learn, understand, and grow more this week as an educator than I have in any previous PD’s or coaching experiences. Thanks again for leading us through the week and helping me to remember and recognize what it means to be a learner.
