Started class today with a Characteristics of Number #menumath task from Chris Hunter. Resulted in some great classroom conversation. One student asked "can a number be a perfect square and a perfect cube?" Other students promplty found an example. #ITeachMath #HRCEMath

A grades 5&6 class at Thompson is learning about theoretical vs experimental probability, drawing on the resources from the Coast Metro Elementary Math Project coastmetro.ca including this great NRICH maths task, It's a Tie! nrich.maths.org/5516 #sd38learn
