Hi Shelley 🙂 Thank you for sharing these wonderful maps. I was wondering if teachers sit down with each Primary or (early) Elementary student individually to walk them through the map and to ask them to self-assess? (especially for those students who cannot read the map just yet)
Thanks for sharing the resources and knowledge. Awesome presentation in WI!
Hello everyone! I would like to know if anyone has used the learning template with high school math. My staff in that department are trying to wrap their heads around the “all” piece, especially in Math 9. Any examples out there?
These are fantastic, Shelley. Thanks for sharing these offline and online learning tools.
