Ask the Question: How many?

We have hundreds of Look-Think-Talk activities on our website and one way to find just what you’re looking for is by focusing on the central mathematical question you will ask students to think about. Each question can lead to different kinds of big ideas, and in this series of videos we’ll share with you what opportunities posing a particular question can open up. We encourage you to explore new questions you can ask to get into deep mathematical discussions.

This week, we focus on the question: How many? While this may seem like a simple counting question, there is a lot potential hidden inside. Watch our How many? video and give one of these activities a try with your students tomorrow.

And we invite you to follow us on Twitter! Tweet us the fascinating ideas you students have about our activities or how you’re trying these activities in your space. We can’t wait to hear from you!

To multiplicity, cheers!
