Want to embrace #fractions? Create your own Fraction Strips! P/J/I Ss make connections&have deeper learning with their self-created math tools. Great tool for EQAO, fractional counting, operations & UNDERSTANDING FRACTIONS! Check out these Gr3s! #dpmath PS Great for adults too😊

This Wednesday's RAPID RUNDOWN session is all about that tried-and-true math manipulative - Cuisenaire Rods! Join Pricia for 30 min. of practical math learning + walk away w/ ideas to support students' conceptual understanding (K-8). Check your @LimestoneDSB email for the link.

DYK about the 70:30 rule? Research suggests that students should be talking 70% during learning, & Ts should be speaking 30%. Oral Language is the foundation of all learning...even math! Join this week's RR w/ Pricia to learn practical ways to get your Ss talking more about math!

Rapid Rundown #3 in the books. @Pricia5 shared all about Numbers/Problem Strings. Great learning & questions from @LimestoneDSB educators who joined us today. Thanks to Pricia for her time & expertise, and to everyone for coming out. Next week...Vocabulary with Selena!

@KSSAthletics Thank you!!

Our littlest friends enjoying some engaging oral language activities that engage our interests! @OntarioSLP @BayridgePS_LDSB

Hey #MTBoS!! I just had the most wonderful day with students and found the energy to blog!! I've been refining how I assess the last couple years, and "The Interview Quiz" has become a staple in my room. natbanting.com/the-interview-… (Feedback is always welcome). #iteachmath

Amazing day fishing at Kingston Mills with grade 9 math students from @KSS_ldsb . Thank you Jackie, Christina, Alice & Jessi for teaching us about sustainable fishing & Indigenous ways of knowing math. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!

@BSSMathDept @BayridgeSS_LDSB @MrRunions @LimestoneDSB Agreed!! The future of education is in good hands.

@jackieadecker @BayridgeSS_LDSB We are so lucky to have teachers like Ms. Froats-Crowder and Mr. @MrRunions working with our @LimestoneDSB students - they bring such a positive energy to the classroom. Thanks for the collab! #thefutureisbright

An inspiring day of co-planning/co-teaching with incredible NTIP/MTH1W teachers @BayridgeSS_LDSB. Students figured out relationships between dimensions & area/perimeter by doing a sequence of informal proofs, BTC style. To see the Ss' amazing thinking, follow the thread... /1

@LimestoneDSB peeps, find the full sequence of tasks here: ldsb.elearningontario.ca/d2l/le/lessons… /6

Thanks to all teachers and students for such an amazing day. Such great mathematical thinking, collaboration and perseverance. /5

Learning about culturally responsive approaches to math through Indigenous art. Beadwork requires a lot of planning, patience & a positive mindset. Thank you @jackieadecker & @LivNRondeau from @LimestoneDSB for presentation at @OAMEcounts #OAME2023 @TCDSB @OLP_TCDSB
