Like Marianne, I am beginning to internalize the differences between the two different ratio tables–multiplicative comparison and composed units. Thank you for the realistic example of the Uncle Ben’s rice scenario and the importance of authentic uses of math in daily life. Love the engaging videos which lead to noticing and wondering which hook the learner. Then moving to the importance of estimation which becomes a talking point for students to share their thinking. All this is what good teaching looks like and sounds like.
