    This is a great learning idea to make it easy for kids to understand math. It is typically a hard subject for many students and making it easy to understand helps a lot. Kudos.

    Wow - that was a pretty comprehensive guide. Lots of ideas here to use in my homeschooling activities. Bookmarked to return later. What a great resource.

    Thanks for linking my blog, Catholic Mom's Journey
    I love doing math notebooks with my children. It is like narration for math!

    beautiful photos have made this lense even more interesting. I also like writing about maths and am highly inspired by this lense, great work

    AFTER TEACHING GRADE 4 LANGUAGE ARTS FOR 13 YEARS, WE ARE GOING TO SELF CONTAINED CLASSROOMS. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED WITH THE MATH NOTEBOOKS IN THE FALL. THANKS FOR YOUR GRACIOUS SHARING.

    This lens was worth of reading! Well done ;)

    A very interesting concept - my son is very math-reluctant so this might be just the thing.

    Isn't this just like putting a whole bunch of completed homework in a binder? I find it best to review lesson plans and incorporate past material into your new work.

    This stuff may make it more dun for my kids.

    Really great information in this lens! I've bookmarked it.

    I'm so glad I found this! Wonderful ideas. I had already started doing something like this with my DD, but had no idea what to call it! Thanks.

    The lists of graphic organizers and writing prompts really help.

    Love this. I do something similar but I got even more ideas here. Excellent Lens!!!

    Jimmie, I just finished a Squid Lit review of a book we have been using lately for notebooking. I thought you might be interested.

    Hi, do you know where I could get some notebooking pages on LCM and HCF?
    Thanks for the very informative lens!

    Cool!

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful ideas! I recently started using math journals with my children after reading about them at www.k-5mathteachingresources.com so seeing these photos gives me even greater motivation to keep going with them.
  • David Hogan Sep 3, 2010 @ 1:17 pm | delete
    Very impressive compilation of math journaling resources. I teach math at a public school in Texas and online. I'm going to add a link on my blog to your lens. I'm also going to forward it to our elementary principal. Thank!

    Great ideas, I never would have thought of notebooking our math as well! Thanks.
  • melissa Oct 13, 2009 @ 1:27 am | delete
    I must do this, we have become dry as toast with math, all my children and I are creating math notebooks beginning tomorrow, thanks!
  • Nikki Oct 10, 2009 @ 4:38 pm | delete
    I did a google search for "living math" and found your squidoo page!
    This is great! I really appreciate you sharing everything. I feel like I have some direction and advice, and I am now ready to take our first leap into living math!
  • Nicole Hale Aug 4, 2009 @ 8:24 am | delete
    Thank you! Your clear and concise depiction of notebooking and practical applications in all subjects is a much needed resource! You've even given me a few more subjects to use notebooking in as a guide/record of my children's progress. Well done!

    interesting!
  • dee67p Jun 15, 2009 @ 3:42 pm | delete
    I'm thrilled to chime in here and thank you for helping me figure out the format for transitioning my kids from one math program to another. My oldest has done a little bit of the notebooking this past spring and the guiding "whys" above give me more reason to encourage my younger children to notebook in math study as well. Thank you for sharing your work and your love of learning with us.

    Another inspirational math lens! I love the idea of using three ring notebooks and sheet protectors for math journals. They are more versatile than the journals that we have used. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Lensrolled to all my math lenses.

    I had not thought of notebooking MATH! What a cool idea! 5 big ol' stars!

    How timing that I recieve this an email about this page today. Last night I printed off a ton of money pages for Elijah's math notebook.
    enchantedlearning.com has some great money pages.

    Thanks for sharing.

    You know -the best mathematicians are also great at language. But if a kid were to prefer writing in 'math language' instead of words, I would not discourage that. Just make sure the formula are correct.
  • LilliputStation Mar 27, 2009 @ 3:05 pm | delete
    Awsome lens, Jimmie! We've not done any math notebooking (hmm, maybe there's a reason for that, lol!) but we may try some of these ideas out next year. Thanks for all your hard work on this.
  • luvmyludwig Mar 27, 2009 @ 6:38 am | delete
    wow, this is a really wonderful homeschooling resource. I am going to share your lenses with the mama's in my playgroup. We have a few homeschooling moms that would really enjoy your lenses.
