A math diagram on chart paper showing six groups of 40 inside squares; two of the 40s have 10 in each corner. Two 40s are grouped into 80, which are then added to make 160, and then 240A diagram showing four circles above an incomplete box, and then times 6. Underneath, they have written four times 10 equals 40, 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40, 10, 20, 30, 40
For rectangles are drawn with two sets of five dots inside each rectangle; to the right they've written 1(4*10)=40Four rectangles are drawn on a Wipebook workbook, there is an x on each edge of the rectangle and 40 written inside. One rectangle has tens written on the inside of each rectangle on each side, and the 40 is circled. Underneath they have written 40×6=240

The top left picture is a diagram using base ten blocks. There are two 100 flats, with five 10 rods underneath each one and seven 10 rods along the side. There is a 5x7 rectangle of 1 cubes in the corner. The bottom right picture is a diagram using algebra tiles. There are two x^2 flats, with five x rods underneath each one and seven x rods along the side. There is a 5x7 rectangle of 1 cubes in the corner. "Q4: What is the same about these two images?

I know this is #ElemMathChat, but I'm curious about how we feel when we start wandering away from elementary math content. So with that in mind...

Q1: What is your first reaction to this task? Is it a thought, a feeling?
Top left is a text image of a math task: Rewrite each of the following expressions involving complex numbers in the form a+bi where a and b are real numbers. (3+2i)(2-5i) (5/2 + 7i/2)^2 - (5/2 +i/2)^2 (5+4i)(17-13i)(5+3i)(17-13i) (1+i)(13-4i)(1-i) 1+ i + i^2 + i^3 Bottom right is three vertically stacked emoticons: a shocked face, a mad face, and a sad face.

I don't see what gets broken by letting parallelograms be isosceles trapezoids. Is there something that states the parallel sides can't be congruent?

I know folks who have used these routines in their classroom and been completely underwhelmed, because they didn't have a purpose at the forefront of their mind. They expected the routine to be a magic cure-all.

I knew I wanted to break up 3 1/3 because I know 1/3 of 24, but then I didn't feel like multiplying 3*24, so I wanted to break it into 20+4. I was worried that I didn't know 1/3 of 20 or 4, and then I remembered I don't have to. So I did a hybrid area model. #MathIsFigureOutAble
Top of the picture shows a rectangle that has been divided into three sections. The top of the rectangle is labeled with 20 and 4, the left side of the rectangle is labeled with 3 and 1/3, the bottom of the rectangle is labeled with 24. The intersection with 20 and 3 on the outside has a 60 in the middle, The section with 4 and 3 on the outside has a 12 in the middle, and the section with 1/3 and 24 on the outside has 8 in the middle. Underneath the rectangle is written 60 + 20 = 80.
