Mathematical Equivalence: Developing Conceptual Understanding of the Equal Sign
Teacher Tim, M.Ed., Reading Specialist
Average rating:5.0Number of reviews:(211)
Learners explore the Big Idea of mathematical equivalence in elementary level math. Learners conceptually develop a deeper understanding of the equal sign, beyond "put the answer here," benefiting advanced math abilities.

One of the best things about teaching on Outschool is the ability to create classes based on personal interests, passion and/or academic need. Many learners conceptually misunderstand the equal sign in mathematics; and often, traditional classrooms don't have time to dive deep into the topic. Here, learners analyze the equal sign and apply their knowledge in a friendly environment. Mathematical equivalence is a Big Idea which refers to the relationship between two quantities that are equal...
Ideally, learners will develop a conceptual understanding of the equal sign and its symbol of equivalence, instead of an "operational signal" meaning "calculate the total," or "put the answer here." Honing this skill will benefit learners as they prepare to do higher-order math, including algebra.
I achieved my master's degree in education and earned my reading endorsement through the Ohio Department of Education, which certifies my ability to plan, instruct, engage and assess learners in the Big Five components of the science of reading: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency and Comprehension. I also co-teach second grade math during the 2022-2023 academic year and am a member of the Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics (OCTM) and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).
