This school year, every student received $1,357 less funding than they would have if the government had kept up with inflation.
This is equal to a $35,000 cut per classroom, and a $2.7 billion cut in per-student funding across Ontario.
Public education is drowning.

Limestone DSB Math Team is looking forward to sharing some fun math games with families at OAME on Sat, May 4th at St. Lawrence college from 9-12. Here is a sneak peek at one of our activities - giant tangrams. @SteveHedderson @OAMElearns @LimestoneDSB

Only 8 days to go. Today we say thanks to our conference sponsors who help keep registration fees down by sponsoring a variety of aspects of our convention. Most of them will also be hosting an exhibit table so be sure to stop by to say your thanks!

Day 101: After noticing and wondering about a coloring and partitioning scheme for the numbers 1-20, we analyzed an image that extended the numbers up to 60. Can you figure out what's going on with the numbers and why they're colored and partitioned the way they are?

Because memorizing procedures can often require kids to treat the numbers in each step as digits, they often lose sight of the quantities they are actually working with.
In this way, memorizing procedures get in the way of sense-making.

@LimestoneDSB peeps looking to build fact fluency with fun and intentional games like this one - check out our K-12 Mathematics resource in Minds Online. This game, and other multiplication games, are in this section: ldsb.elearningontario.ca/d2l… (self-register to access). @Pricia5

Factor Puzzles!
Any student who is learning multiplication and integers is ready for these. Every algebra teacher everywhere wishes students were playing this game A LOT.

It doesn't matter IF you write. It matters what ur brain is doing, what you are writing.
Mimicking steps? Not mental math.
Using relationships, even if you write. That's mental math.

Have you heard of the math instructional routine I Have, You Need?
It's about helping students construct really important mental relationships.

It was so great being able to see how base 10 blocks can be used to create helpful models to visualize what’s actually happening here. So much work needs to happen before we pull out the pencil and paper! Thanks @Pricia5 and @jackieadecker for an afternoon filled with learning.

The difference between a strategy and a model is SO important so I wrote this. And it comes with an interactive task to help you parse them out.
