If Excel ever had a tongue it surely would have told us that eating thousands of rows is as delicious for it as dunking oreos in milk for humans! But we humans have another issue and that is we easily get tired of scrolling down especially if the list is so long as if it is […]

There is a learning disability in mathematics named Dyscalculia. Current research suggests that Dyscalculia may be the result of mild impairment in the brain areas involved in mathematical cognition. However this impairment may be able to be remediated, especially at a young age. Dyscalculia affects people from across the whole IQ range. Estimates of the prevalence of Dyscalculia range between 3-6% of the population. Recent studies show that Dyscalculia is even more common than Dyslexia.

**UPDATE: Want to make these into a bookmark for a student desk reference? Click the photo below to be taken to a tutorial** Do any of you use Everyday Math as your math curriculum? I piloted it this year in my building and I really liked it- our old math curriculum was pretty archaic and I love how EM makes kids much more nimble with numbers! I especially loved how they set up their assessments. At the beginning of each, there is a self-assessment and I actually make several copies of this to use throughout the unit. We will fill one out at the beginning and then touch base with it after lessons that cover one of the major topics listed. I was making some posters of these great doodles when I came across Alison's blog, Eberopolis. She has a great anchor chart posted and I loved the titles she gave to each of the levels: These titles were the missing pieces that I needed to help make it all come together! Plus, I liked her "Novice" category- at the beginning of some units, students have never heard of the concept, so it was very fitting. I decided to make some posters to hang in the classroom and extend this concept past math class. Here's the result: I am really liking this new format and hope you do, too! Want to get your own copy?

I’ve done long range plans a few different times over the years, and this the first time I am sharing them through my blog. In the past, I’ve really felt that true learning happens in the process of doing your plans yourself. As a mentor, I’d rather teach you to fish, than to give you...Read More »

Hi there! I’m back today with another floor plan for you to look over. I like this one! It’s a nice basic family home with all of the features I love. The layout of the garage/storage/laundry/scullery is my favourite part of the home. Actually, the whole layout is pretty good.…
Technically speaking, you can walk without the ACL if you are only participating in straight line activities such as walking or cycling. However, if your ACL is completely torn, continue to walk may damage other parts of the knee and affect knee function for a lifetime which can lead to osteoarthritis if not treated correctly.

This year has already had some ups and downs, but I'm enjoying it so far. We have new textbooks, which is always a challenge, but since this is my 2nd year in Algebra 2, I'm feeling more confident in my ability to try new things. Last week, we taught two lessons. One was on domain and range and whether something was a function. Sunday night before I was to teach it, I got a brainstorm of an activity and immediately messaged Neighbor Teacher about the idea. I love working with Neighbor Teacher because she is always willing to try my harebrained ideas :) We often tease that if we could just meld our minds into one, we'd be unstoppable! Anyway, we got together after school on Monday to brainstorm and I had a stash of Graph Paper index cards. We ended up making 6 sets of domain/range cards for us to use in our classes the next day. For each card, the kids had to figure out the domain, the range, and whether it was a function. It went very well! Here's a picture of the cards: The next lesson was about standard form and x/y intercepts. Years ago, we used to teach an activity based algebra lab class, so we started digging through those card games, etc and low and behold, we had a matching game for standard form, graphs, and intercepts. So again, we put the kids in groups and had them match them up. It's great to hear the kids talking math!!! This week was our first test in Algebra 2. All of the concepts we had quizzed on were on the test. The kids had their quizzes back, had opportunties to reassess, etc. I was determined NOT to do a test review worksheet because I want the kids to learn how to study based on their personal weaknesses, not just regurgitate a test review. I encouraged them to make a practice test from the level 2 questions on their quizzes. I told them to work the homework problems from their weak areas, etc. Again, Neighbor Teacher and I brainstormed how to review and she came up with the idea of practice cards per learning target. So last weekend, I made 3 cards per Learning Target, each with 3 questions on it. I made 2 complete sets of these cards and the kids really seemed to like the targeted review. See a sample of the cards here: Of course, the title of this blog is "Teaching Statistics", so I suppose I should share an activity from there too :) This next week, we will be covering Contingency Tables and Marginal/Conditional Distributions. I got yet another brainstorm last week while driving home and when I got home, I just had to type it up :) I am really trying to reduce my "talking time" more and more each year and make things as self-guided as I can. A friend of mine field tested it today, but I haven't heard yet how it went, so use with caution :) It can't be that bad - it's an M&M Lab for goodness sake! heheh So click here for the activity :) We have staff development tomorrow then off for a mini-vacay with the fam - I'm hoping to have more brainstorms and more to share with you when I get back! Until then, have a happy and safe holiday weekend!
