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 Kindergarten 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.
