We’re trying a new podcast series called: Stories from the Field. This is where we highlight the work we are encountering in the field and share what we’re noticing, the conversations we can’t stop thinking about, and what it’s all teaching us about the teaching and learning of math - and of course, other things.

In this episode, Ryan Flessner and I reflect on a quick story about how our daughter knew 3.01 was divisible by 7, and why it's important to give kids time to tinker with numbers. Next, I share the story about Super Smash Bros guy and my three encounters with him during this school year. I LOVE both of these stories and what we can learn from them. Enjoy the listen!
