I have just linked our blog to the TLLP e-learning site as our first artifact. Welcome to our first viewers. We are going to begin our classroom implementation stage right after Christmas and will have much more content then.
We have received our professional reading materials and will have an update of these titles and our reviews of the books after our next meeting in January.
Please check back soon.

Math Activities
After teaching the Essential Math class for many years, I decided to incorporate a variety of teaching strategies and activities that I felt would benefit my Grade 10 Applied Math Class. Having a larger number of students in the class as opposed to the small class size and Educational Assistant support in the essential class, I knew the activities that were being introduced would be challenging. My goal was to review the unit of Rates and Ratios through a variety of hands on activities. Some examples include: Comic Strip Grid Art, Wooden Dinosaur Model Building, Play doe Recipe, and a Treasure Map Creation. While completing the assignments, I will be evaluating the overall effectiveness of the activity, interest level of the students, and connection to the curriculum.
