I audibly gasped when I opened @MathforLove ‘s latest creation - Addition by Heart. I’ve been anticipating its arrival. My 5yo wouldn’t put them down. Designed with evidence-based principles in mind. The beauty is in the progression of how kids engage with each deck.

We have been praying at the altar of engaging tasks. We try to heighten engagement so kids can endure the content. Instead change the environment. #thinkingclassrooms #ICTM @pgliljedahl

Teachers - it's time for my annual reminder that an overly decorated classroom can contribute to cognitive load. Most of those IG classrooms are cute, but can make it harder for students to learn. Save yourself some time. Keep it simple, clean, and purposeful.
