Nat Banting

🧵🧵 This past Friday, I received a Prime Minister's Teaching Certificate of Excellence. 🇨🇦🧮 I'm proud to call myself both a Canadian and a teacher, and so the honour has been humbling. Many have reached out an offered kinds words and congratulations. Thank-you! 1/5

Channeling my inner @NatBanting today at the @HaltonDSB open house.

Love this!! Maybe we should be designing our own packaging?

@ccampbel14 Try now!!

@NatBanting, I have been delving further into the routine, Oops, I forgot... and wanted to access the two links on this page, natbanting.com/oops-i-forgot/, but I only get a 404. Can you help me out please?

@ccampbel14 Let me look!!!

@realJ_Mitchell @DebbieKasman For me the question is: Which basic? Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge advocate for aphorisms; however, they should be filled with meaning.

@DebbieKasman What does it mean to go “back to basics”?

BREAKING NEWS: Dear Ontario parents and educators, Here’s what you got in the Speech from the Throne: ~ A back to basics approach in the classroom in reading, writing and math ~ Introduction of critical life skills like personal finances ~ Increased access to career coaching ~ All investments will be directed to classrooms instead of increasing the size of senior administration (are there going to be roll backs?) ~ Will be “relentless” in ensuring school boards remain accountable (@PaulCalandra’s video). Details, please? Unless there’s something hidden in @PaulCalandra’s “relentless” details, it looks like an epic fail to me. #onted #onpoli #cdned #tdsb #ldnont @PaulCalandra @lornecoe @fordnation @douglasdowney #tvdsb #brantford @Teachers__Unite @ETFOpresident @ETFOeducators @osstf @Bp4_Canada @chris4_reform @kwoodck @krushowy @CBCQueensPark @spaikin @SOSTDSB @TDSBDirector @Educhatter @DrPeiTO @calphonso @trusteecripps @ONeducation @OPCouncil @Ont_Ombudsman

@MathletePearce 🤦 Canadians must stand united, but that’s testing my limits 😂

So this weekend Elham Kazemi claimed that pronouncing the word “tomorrow” as “tuh-MORE-oh” meant that I had an accent. Then she went and said, “tuh-MAR-oh” Just wild.

Room227 in that middle picture! (and that's a fun problem about making squares)

Check out fractiontalks.com from @NatBanting for fun images to get students reasoning about fractions. #iteachmath

@robertkaplinsky @NatBanting I use fraction talks every Friday for my warmup with my 8th graders - we call it Fraction Friday. It’s so valuable for Ss to see how others broke apart the shape to justify their response.
