Math Videos

Some of my district math peeps and I had a great idea this past year! We decided to make a library of videos that demonstrate math strategies the children are learning in school.  We had a hard time explaining to parents what their children were learning since most of them were not taught with strategies.  So, we videotaped the Math Coach explaining the strategy, then a classroom guided math group implementing the  strategy.  We decided to start with 1.OA.6 since that's what we were doing in math at the time.  We only had enough school year to make videos for one strategy for that learning standard but I thought I would share it so you could see our vision.  The students loved being video taped and watching the end result as well, often critiquing their math as they watched (an unexpected, but pleasant surprise).  Here are the links to the videos.  They are unlisted so the only way to get to them is from here.  Enjoy and if you have any questions or comments I would love to hear them!  Addition Video     Subtraction Video
