Students from @StMarySchool2 got to play with some new math manipulatives today! The kids had so much fun exploring and the teachers are excited to get the materials into their classrooms! @MathforLove pattern blocks were a favourite!

#countingcollections in grade 1/2. Some topics that emerged: place value, skip counting, expanded form, arrays, patterning, addition, and so much more!

@pgliljedahl Congratulations @vendi55 !!

@lisaebe @pgliljedahl How did it go!?

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

Tried out the new consolidation method from @pgliljedahl and it is a game changer 🙌🏻 Thank you for sharing this with us- this is the missing piece I needed and there is SO much potential in this model #buildingthinkingclassrooms

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

@NatBanting @pgliljedahl I believe it’s called revised note taking- essentially taking some parts of the note taking but having students complete it with their random group. It makes the consolidation piece so much more meaningful when the task isn’t as divergent.

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

@NMedina5 @MaeganGiroux @pgliljedahl I don’t know what it’s officially called- but that sounds right!?

Explicit instruction vs direct instruction: @BuildMathMinds clears up some misconceptions and gives a great explanation in this short video https://t.co/h55jbpGDio

@BuildMathMinds gives a great explanation on the difference between "direct instruction" and "explicit instruction" in mathematics. https://t.co/h55jbpGDio

@geoffkrall @DavidKButlerUoA @eluberoff Amazing thank you!

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

@DavidKButlerUoA @geoffkrall It's so neat to see what the kids come up with. The activity allows for so many varied levels of understanding.

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

Shade 1/4 of this shape in the most creative way you can. These grade 4/5s are blowing my mind! Stay tuned for the final result! Thanks for the idea @geoffkrall

“What fraction of this square is shaded?” Fraction talks in grade 4/5 today at @St_Agnes_MJ

Clothesline math with the grade 6 class at @we_areallsaints today! Students were ordering fractions and decimals

@cmctavi @SteveWyborney You are amazing! That would be so helpful!

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

Does anyone know if there are #estimystery resources available in French? @SteveWyborney

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

@MaeganGiroux This session sounds so good! You will likely spot me in the audience 😊

[Amy Davis @AmyDavisHT]

@cmctavi @SteveWyborney @cmctavi the only problem is I don’t speak French 😂 If I am able to some that are already translated I’ll let you know and pass them along!
