Division 8 students created felted moons and wrote an artist statement to represent what they’ve learned in Socials and Science. We were inspired by the book Taan’s Moon. @SD38Arts

For today's Mental Math Monday, how would you mentally calculate 107-18?

Bienvenue à la Salle de jeux éphémère de Div 8 (3/4 EFI)! We spent 3 weeks creating our games using the design process. C’était tellement amusant! @MFirebirds @SD38Arts @RichmondSD38

On s’est bien amusé à la plage, toutes les classe FI! @MFirebirds

Yes!!

Some of my past success is by breaking down goals into three parts; big, medium and small. I start with the big goal I want to achieve, whether personal or professional, and then have things I want to achieve each week (medium) and day (small) that will help me get closer to that big goal. With each medium and small win, I feel more confident in the big goals that I'm pursuing. Here's an example from when I was trying to lose weight: Big goal - lose 120 pounds Medium goal - lose 1-3 pounds a week Small goals - certain amount of steps, pushups, and 45-60 grams of protein per meal (3 per day) I eventually hit the big goal, but kept the small and medium targets which has helped me with my new big goal of the Disney marathon in January 2024. Hope this helps someone out there! It definitely helped me. #exercise #fitness #mentalhealth #atomichabits

How many teachers does it take to do a subtraction problem? One, because it only takes one teacher to make a difference. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week.

@howie_hua Richmond, BC in Canada is not too far from California! Come visit us please!

I think my dream job is to be some sort of national math coach. I think I'm good at making connections and explaining math conceptually and I just want to help people understand math on a deeper level.
