I don’t think Denise has taken the thinking out of math with her tip sheets! While she may be consolidating some items for students to learn and/or review, by encouraging them to compete in math competitions, she is helping students put a great deal of thinking into math!
Throughout her blog, Denise has always encouraged thinking about math!
(I’m sure you didn’t really mean for your comment to come across that way…)

Hi Mathmom,
Good catch.
I just copied and pasted the descriptions of the Math articles from the blog hosting the Carnival. I didn’t even think about the descriptions when I used them. I agree Denise certainly encourages thinking about Math.
I’ll pay more attention to this sort of thing in the future.
