Episode description
If you’ve ever watched a child during a counting collection and thought “Ugh! Why are you grouping the items like that?!?” Well, there’s probably a reason.
There is a progression kids go through when organizing items they are counting. Now even though this information comes from a book about Early Childhood Education, it still applies to those of you in 3rd-5th as you work to help them group items in ways that lead to multiplicative thinking.
Watch this week’s video about The Progression of Grouping to help you understand why kids might be grouping items a certain way and how to help them. Get any links mentioned in this video at BuildMathMinds.com/166
