JiJi is visiting Firth of Forth Bridge, Scotland, United KingdomThis railway bridge spanning the estuary of the Forth River in Scotland is the world’s longest multi-span cantilever bridge. It opened in 1890 and continues to carry passengers and freight. Its distinctive industrial aesthetic is the result of a forthright and unadorned display of its structural components. Innovative in style, materials and scale, Forth Bridge represents a significant milestone in bridge design and construction during the period when railways came to dominate long-distance land travel. |

This month's Postcard MessageCongratulations on a great month of learning! In this month's postcard we are highlighting the innovative problem-solving tools that are available to you and your students in ST Math. We love the annotation tool, where students can mark up the screen with virtual markers to help them uncover the math behind the puzzles. You can learn more about using the annotation tool on ST Math Academy.
Animation tools are also new, to allow teachers and students to pause, rewind, and scroll through feedback animations. This empowers students to deeply explore the math in each puzzle and elevate their understanding of mathematical schemas. Finally, students can now see their logins, minutes, and puzzles by week. This improves accountability and intrinsic motivation to continue on their ST Math journey.
Effective Teaching Practice & ST Math: Build Procedural Fluency from Conceptual Understanding. Conceptual understanding based on experiences with concrete representations builds procedural fluency. By scheduling time for your students to use ST Math consistently, you are providing them access to solve problems in a variety of ways including visual models, the annotation tool and the autoplay feature. Sincerely, JiJi and the ST Math Team |
