Would puzzle-y problems like these help your kids master their multiplication facts – while getting them ready for factors, multiples, and simultaneous equations? Can we encourage kids to reason thru each & every decision they make? Want more? We have thousands of great puzzles!

The rekenrek—2 rows of 10 beads, 5 red and 5 white—is a simple but effective tool to use in early math classrooms. We ♡ rekenreks! Here's how to use one and some examples of problems it can be used to solve: youtube.com/watch?v=bjakjKf6… #ece #EarlyChildhood #ECEchat

With EQAO now being paused so that the platform can be tested, schools are now having to rearrange/postpone class trips, sporting events etc. Students were in tears because their work was not saved. Genuine Q: Is it really in our students' best interests to keep going with this?

#DougFord cutting libraries by 50% is a policy issue. This will hurt students & families. We would like to hear from the Minister of Education @Sflecce his thoughts on this. As an educator I would prefer to keep the libraries & return the license plate cheque

On the contrary, #Zelensky is a hero who is prepared to be a martyr for his Ukrainian brothers and sisters. Greater love has no person than those willing to lay down their lives for their friends.

I'm running to be on the @OAMEcounts Board of Directors 'cause I'm not busy enough🙃 But seriously, strong math leadership founded on equity & anti-oppression is critical, now more than ever. If you're a member of OAME, take 2 mins to vote. RT also helps🙏🏽 oame.on.ca/main/index.php?la…
