I was wondering if you had the resources available listed under Appendix C. I would like to incorporate number talks in the high school level, and would like to see some examples. Thank you

I would greatly appreciate a copy of Appendix C as number talk is something I want to incorporate in my teaching.

\\"Flexibility in Mathematical Situations\\" Boy, is that missing from our instruction in 1st grade! We have so little time to really delve into what numbers mean before we expect our little ones to \\"use\\" them or perform operations with them. This is exactly why I wanted to participate in DTI. While I stopped reading your unit after your Background section, I am sure that it will help me to develop a similar unit for the lower elementary grades :) Thanks!

Hi Nancy, I'm playing with how to improve the number sense of my 11th grade Algebra 2 students. I have played some with number talks and I'm a big proponent of James Tanton's exploding dots curriculum (easy to find at gdaymath.com). I also play with Fermi problems. I don't know when you posted this and I don't know if you've tried it. If you have, I'd like to know what results you've experienced. Please let me know if you or any one else has played with this curriculum. What has worked and what hasn't? Or has it all worked? :-) Thanks (and thanks for sharing what you put together), Joshua--
