3rd, 4th and 5th Grade Number Talks. The following resources have been created by Mollie Hall using Number Talks: Helping Children Building Mental Math and Computation Strategies (Parrish, 2010). It is recommended that you begin by reading through the book and also the following article: Number Talk Overview.
anomalies. 1  1 : something different, abnormal, peculiar, or not easily classified : something anomalous They regarded the test results as an anomaly. 2  2 : deviation from the common rule : irregularity. 3  3 : the angular distance of a planet from its perihelion as seen from the sun.
Also found in: Wikipedia. An unusual, temperature-dependent effect displayed in the thermal, electrical, and magnetic properties of nonmagnetic metals containing very small quantities of magnetic impurities. A striking example is the anomalous, logarithmic increase in the electrical resistivity with decreasing temperature. Other properties, such as heat capacity, magnetic susceptibility, and thermoelectric power, also display anomalous behavior because of the Kondo effect.
