Enjoying shooting lightning bolts from my fingertips to represent multiplication arrays using the new TouchTimes app on my iPad. touchcounts.ca/touchtimes #mtbos #iteachmath
#Math inspired #art as the children first explore shapes and shape transformation through a read aloud, and then create their own shape compositions. How many different ways can you show a square? @geometry4yl

I loved how each @geometry4yl #symmetry lesson becomes more challenging. Ss #persevered while looking closely to see what is the same and different. Excellent activities to use during transition times. #spatialreasoning #M4YC #Kindergarten @PineGrovePS

Countering the prototypical assumption Ss make that all triangles are upright equilaterals (as indicated by our survey) with a read aloud and shape sorting activity. #math #geometry @geometry4yl

Have shared the great book Taking Shape with #BCAMTreggio & with some American colleagues - currently reading some research behind it.

This artwork by Paul Klee always reminded me of mathematics and beauty. "In the Desert," 1914.

@geometry4yl @RCCDSB geometry is not NAMING things ( like botany).
