As students are beginning to learn about converting fractions to decimals, the number tiles on Polypad can be helpful in providing some concrete representations. Mathigon @desmosclassroom Amplify #iteachmath #MTBoS

One of the best parts of the job is when former Trafalgar PS Ss return & share their successes. Thrilled to have this kiddo. (in gr. 11) swing by to show me he is now a qualified welder. Another shared his 98% math grade, the other their plan to go into esthetics #TVDSB Thames Valley DSB
