@mathgeek76 Think about contextual applications of linear relationships - y=mx+b is useful if you have a starting and one rate. Ax+By=C is useful when you have two rates and a total.

Pear deck worked great thank you!

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

You can do that in pear deck oh yeah! You’re so helpful thank you. I’m doing staff trivia and sometimes it’s hard for them to hear me read the question and there’s no projector. So this way they can have the question in their phone as we go along!

Software Q: Is anyone aware of a slide style web based program that can have audience members open the presentation on their own devices but the pace of the presentation is controlled by the host? #presentation #slides #techquestion #edutech

@ABLucasVikings teachers @MathWithMsTran and @JenBrownEdu are sharing insight, experience and strategies with families planning for EQAO and grade 10 pathways at our Grade 9 Family Math Night!! Thank you to all who took time to attend!!

Alpaca Therapy animals! Thanks so much to the @ABLucasVikings leadership class for bringing these majestic animals into Lucasto help with student and staff mental health and raise money for charity. Oh and the weather! #TherapyAlpacas #majestyPoints #TVDSB #MentalHealth

What’s better than Brews, Astronomy and Friends! This was such a great event. Two excellent and engaging talks and delicious #ForkedRiver #Heemans collaboration and great company Nicole Winter and John. #AstronomyOnTap #LifeLongLearner #Instituteforearthandspaceexploration

Thanks for sharing - Everyone that knows me knows I love a good spreadsheet!! #SpreadsheetNerd #Spreadsheets4life #OntMath

Ontario ranks high in math thanks to educators making learning not just about the fundamentals, but also rich problems that get students to think & use tools, because PISA questions aren't "basic."

Here's a short 🧵 of some doozies. Let's start with a SPREADSHEET?!?! 🤯

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

@StacieOliver100 @JasonHimsl @MrsHackett305 @ELANontario Thanks for the shout out!
You are doing amazing things.
The key to a good tracker is making something that works for you and your course and it takes play!

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

This is amazing!
Negative numbers as opposites should be introduced as early as positive numbers. It is intuitive to kids if you introduce them together! #TVDSBMath #Math #Negativenumbers #Zeropairs
Thank you for sharing.

[Liesl McConchie @LieslMcConchie]

I’ve never understood why we hide negative numbers from kids for so long.
Here’s my 5yo exploring negative numbers. (Treasure chest represent positive #s; robber represents negative #s)

He instinctively made zero pairs.
Let the kids explore!

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

@DavidKButlerUoA When I first looked at this I thought the punchline was going to a student submitted this after using some AI to answer their grade ten question and jsut copied it verbatim without any care for understanding.

Outstanding things happening in #TVDSBMath @ABLucasVikings. Congratulations Alessandro this is quite the achievement! #Mathcontest #CaribouContest #TVDSB

[George Bullas @Gbullas17]

An AMAZING result from @ABLucasVikings student Alessandro DM!!! He placed first in the ENTIRE WORLD in the Caribou Math Contest!!!! Congratulations from all of us @TVDSB. Thank you to the staff who have supported and challenged him

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

@coleiroscience @NotreDameHCDSB This sounds amazing. We have a business science dual credit program called LABS. I can’t wait to hear more about yours.

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

Such an engaging framework for practice!

[Andrea Biro @mrsbistro]

Tried something new with #MFM2P today! We had an equation auction (idea from @mathequalslove). Started with a clip of a Survivor auction to set the mood. It was fun and productive, I’d definitely do this type of activity again. One lot went for $700 after a bidding war 😅

[Colette Tobias 🧡 @ms_ctobias]

One of my favourite math challenges - 4 cards, using BEDMAS try and make the numbers 1-30 - you want to see who has resilience and stamina when faced with a challenge try this challenge! Impressive work @CaradocPS #tvdsbmath #tvdsb

I have been obsessed with Io since childhood!

#enl1w teachers: there might be some ideas shared this week to pay attention to - or contribute to!

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

Have you tried accessible texts? How to you create/find the levelled text? Share your experiences.

[MsJBrown. @JenBrownEdu]

Great PD today with our DeStreaming Secondary Support Teacher team and our Literacy Learning Coordinators! I look forward to using accessible texts in my classes and supporting my colleagues in this journey to support students. #DSST #literacy #Righttoread #tvdsb #Accessibletexts
