Sometimes I wish I was as strong as an ant. I found it amazing how they can move food that is much bigger than they are. How many ants did that one kernel of corn feed?
Surfing through Pinterest and came upon this good quadratics activity. I zoomed and realized that it is one Shirlee Anne Campbell and I made years ago. Proud to know others are using and sharing it. https://t.co/GPQUtnFbEa
Lunch with Noah Richardson in Ottawa. I am so proud of this former student as he is living his dream as a journalist and will be going to London this summer on an internship. Wow, a foreign correspondent! #livingthedream @njdrichardson
Proud to be Canadian! Watched the Northern Lights show on Parliament Hill with colleagues from different provinces. As a nation, we have more in common than we have differences.
@davecormier@seancain99@mvlamey Perhaps a IWB for every teacher wasn’t the way to go, but I am forever thankful for having one of the first SMART boards - it revolutionized my teaching - allowed my students to interact using the slate and became my greatest formative assessment device. Ask any of my students!
@kenoc7 I’m thinking you were alone in the elevator for a bit and your natural curiosity took over. The cynical part of me says it is more about fitting portfolios to a political personality than designing portfolios that belong together. Following your tweets unable to attend CAfLN
Today one of our teachers was teaching a brilliant lesson. Everyone was engaged! And then a kid threw up. Just keepin’ it real. The teacher responded with such poise and care. Great teaching isn’t always about an innovative lesson; sometimes it’s about resiliency and compassion.
Caring for students is more important than teaching them content because they may someday be in a position to care for you. Thank you Chelsea Pineau for coming to the rescue and getting my IV in place. #PEI nurses rock
@MsDickieMath@Desmos Sarah, I have resources that will help you but more importantly I’ve been using it a lot and can show you a lot of stuff especially with the .teacher resources.
Continuing to learn how to use Desmos to support student learning in math. Last night it was using definite integrals to calculate the area between two curves.
