4. Everyone can learn math.
Experiences grow your brain. People are not just born a math person.
2) Believe in yourself.
You need to have a growth mindset, not a fixed mindset.
3) It is important to struggle and learn from mistakes.
Don’t look at it as failure. Look at it as an opportunity to grow and get smarter.
4) Speed is not important.
Speed indicates good memorizing. Memorizing isn’t math.
5) Grades and test scores do not define who you are.
If you believe in yourself, you can do anything!

5. Math Talks

6. Math Talks Rules:
Fists must be clenched and on your chest
No “air calculations” or using fingers and toes
When you think you have an answer put your thumbs up
I will collect answers, if yours isn’t on the board please speak up
I will be asking for volunteers to explain their answer and thinking
Many times we will learn more from mistakes in thinking rather than “correct” answer thinking
