Math

This week students are learning how to use their online resources.   I am now placing notes, tutorial videos and lessons in teams.  students log into office 365 to access their teams.   In teams they will find a class notebook.   Today grade 7 and 8 had a video lesson and tasks to perform on both Mathletics and Netmath.   This follows a flipped classroom model where the lesson is recorded and students work at their own pace.   I am available to reteach, give further examples or help problem solve with students.  Mr. Walsh joined us fo the grade 6 class today.   It is nice to have the extra person to float around with me and answer questions.

I get the results from the work students do in Mathletics and Netmath, and can resend them material that better fits where they are at in their learning journey.   Students find that they get a more personalized learning with this set up. 

First math test has been passed back to math 6 and 7.   Some grade 8 got their test back and the rest will be passed back soon.  These should be corrected and returned.
