Work on things OVER TIME
Give new information

02
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.

07
Look for and make use of structure.
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Math is about pattern finding
What do you notice? What do you wonder?
SLIDESMANIA.COM

A man's best friend...
Mmm, can I fit in?...
Did you know that a cat uses its whiskers as feelers to determine if a space is too small to squeeze through?
Also, cats love to sleep. A fifteen-year-old cat has probably spent ten years of its life sleeping.
Did you know that dogs can smell your feelings?
Dogs can pick up on subtle changes in your scent, which can help him figure out how you are feeling, such as by smelling your perspiration when you become nervous or fearful.

Did you know?
Pandas don’t hibernate.
There are more kangaroos than humans in Australia.
Koalas are even more lazy than cats.
It is estimated that more than 50 million kangaroos live there. They are Australia’s national symbol and appear on postage stamps, coins, and airplanes.
Koalas don’t have much energy and, when not feasting on leaves, they spend their time dozing in the branches. Believe it or not, they can sleep for up to 18 hours a day!
When winter approaches, they head lower down their mountain homes to warmer temperatures, where they continue to chomp away on bamboo!
