Description

Welcome fellow Recovering Traditionalists to Episode 76.  Today we are taking a look at tips for Creating Images for Subitizing. The first time I was introduced to Subitizing was in the article Subitizing: What Is It? Why Teach It? By Douglas Clements.  The article was published in 1999, but one thing I discovered through that article was even though the term was fairly new, there had been research done around it from as far back as 1912!  Still today we have lots of elementary educators who don’t know what Subitizing is, why it’s important, or how to teach it. If you aren’t sure what Subitizing is, then pause this video and go download the article.  I’ll link to it over at buildmathminds.com/76 and then you can come back and listen to the rest of this episode because what I’d like to chat about today is some advice on how to actually create images to use for subitizing activities.

The Build Math Minds podcast is for my fellow Recovering Traditionalists out there. If you don’t know whether or not you are a Recovering Traditionalist, here’s how I define us. We are math educators who used to teach math the traditional way. Flip lesson by lesson in the textbook, directly teaching step-by-step how to solve math problems. But now, we are working to change that to a style of teaching math that is fun and meets our students where they are at, not just teaching what comes next in the textbook. We want to encourage our students to be thinkers, problem solvers, and lovers of mathematics..we are wanting to build our students math minds and not just create calculators. If that is you, then this podcast is for you.
