Reflect:
Reflect in your math journal. Draw, create or write to share your thinking. See Lesson 1 plan for more reflection questions, real life anchoring, playful explorations and creative invitations.
Do you prefer sorting with circles or boxes?
When was it easy to decide where something belonged? When was it tricky?
Have you ever felt like you fit in more than one place? Or no place?
How does sorting help you notice? How does it reveal the limits of categories?
Math Talk:
What Math Lives Here?
Have a conversation about this image. Be curious. Be creative. Can you see in different ways?
What do you notice? How are the objects sorted? What do the circles hold? What is overlapping?
What are the 'rules'? How are the 'rules' broken?
How do you know?
