Friendliness isn't always a sign of trustworthiness. Warmth is easy to fake.
The foundations of trust are reliability and integrity. What counts isn't courtesy in the moment—it's keeping commitments over time.
The best way to inspire confidence is to consistently walk our talk.

Yes!! You can see math anxiety disappear when tools are normalized as part of exploration and learning!
concrete manipulatives are NOT reserved for a struggling student.
Use them to Fuel Sense-Making!

We have been working hard on quickly recognizing the number on dice and using the strategy of ‘Counting On’ from ten when we see a full 10 frame on the game board. #Numeracy #Grade1 #TVDSB @LambethPS1

We need to teach math language/vocabulary to all Ss as if they have never heard of it before.
Why?
One needs to interact with a word 24 times (approx) before it becomes part their vocabulary.
90% of math language/vocabulary is not used/heard outside of math class.
