#elemmathchat I like Q6 but often will ask for different ways of viewing the same data. Here are some examples:

ADST projects being made in the Homma Library Learning Commons. Early primary students' pictures are coming to life! #sd38learn #bced #rtla #adst

Big Ideas connected to our stuffie making project: Designs can be improved with prototyping and testing. Complex tasks require the acquisition of additional skills. #ADST #bced #rtla

Who is hiding in the scrap fabric bin? #adst #bced

Qui se cache dans l'arbre? Qu'est-ce qu'il guette depuis sa cachette?

Celebrating student work! #ADST

Quelle imagination! Qui est-ce? D'où vient-il?

#rtla38 Stuffed creatures coming to life! #ADST

#rtla38 Can you see the original design (by one of our K students) and the 3D stuffie version made by an upper intermediate student? Lots of work and problem solving required!

We had an amazing author visit by Jeff Chiba Stearns today! Stearns' books invite conversations about identity. His workshop inspires creativity! #sd38learn #rtla38 #bced

#MathStratChat Viewing a number line we see that it will take 2 to get to zero and then another 6.9 into the negatives. -6.9 is the result. Or, change it to 2 + -8.9 and then 2 of the 8.9 form zero pairs leaving -6.9.

#MathStratChat Still triggering money with the 1/4, converted 7/20 to 35/100 so 25¢+35¢ = 60¢ so 0.60 or 6/10 = 3/5

#MathStratChat Pam Harris To be different or to introduce another medium, let's think sandwiches. A 12 inch sandwich is a footlong. A third of it is 4 inches and 2/3rds is then 8 inches. So 11 inches – 8 inches is 3 inches or 3/12 of a foot. Is there a name for a 1/4 sandwich?

#MathStratChat 6 ÷ 3 = 2. Since we are starting with 3/4 less than 6, we will have an answer that is 3/4 ÷ 3 less than 2. And 2 – 1/4 = 1 3/4
