Very exciting to have our new Lego Mindstorms Robot Inventor kits arrive this week. The new Mindstorms program is awesome and our grade 6-8 Robotics Club coached by @MrRCartwright are really enjoying exploration. @DDSBSchools @DDSB_STEM
Made another #MatchMyCL for this month. Exploring the relationship between diameter, circumference and area of circles with some visual feedback. teacher.desmos.com/activityb…

Please share this video with anyone who says that they're not a "math person." #mtbos #iteachmath
Here's my November #MatchMyCL challenge: teacher.desmos.com/activityb…. Graphing and rearranged arrays to provide students with some visual feedback if their expression matches the pattern.
Student led morning announcements on Google Meet is quickly becoming my favourite part of the day. Thanks, today’s group, for sharing a video recognizing #AsianHeritageMonth @ValleyViewPS
Incredible performances at the 5th annual @ValleyViewPS Slam Poetry Contest. Such an amazing way for students to share their voice
Can you solve this @openmiddle @Desmos clock challenge? #iteachmath #mtbos teacher.desmos.com/activityb…
Central Tendency #matchMyCL @desmos challenge. Create a frequency graph to match the central tendency in the table.

Awesome collaboration and algebraic thinking this morning by @ValleyViewPS 6/7's using @googlejamboard and @desmos to find the number of triangles in this picture. Thanks @KenClarkson3 for the great activity! teacher.desmos.com/activityb…
Tried making this graph interactive for Ss using some of the cool sketch and animation features shared by @mrchowmath and @MrJohnRowe on #desmosLive. Still needs work, but helps show the difference between discrete and continuous data.

This question was tough for Grade 8 math students! Which was the most common incorrect graph? And what's smart about it! #WrongAndBrilliant
ALT Four graphs of the height of a stack of cups vs. the number of cups, some discrete, some continuous, some intersecting the origin, others with a positive y-intercept.
Kicked off Canada Learning Code week #clcWeek with a @ValleyViewPS Coding Challenge: "A Viper Misses the Bus". Such awesome, fun and creative student code!
Can't wait to see all the entries for the next challenge!
Here's my Nov. #MatchMyCL
Students create a sketch, it gets transformed, and then they try to make them similar.

Today, we remember the sacrifices that our Veterans made so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today. Wear your Poppy as a pledge to never forget and at 11:00 am please pause to Remember. #RemembranceDay #CanadaRemembers #LestWeForget #GetYourPoppy
Check out this @Desmos activity. Fraction operations and proportionate reasoning on bike paths. teacher.desmos.com/activityb…

Ss are having a blast playing 4 in a Row and thinking about how the order of their operations can be used to find certain natural numbers.
Loving the conversations they're having!
