Hopefully you have managed to get shovelled out and to campus today!
I hope everyone had a good few days for your mid term 'break' and are feeling a little recharged? :)
For Tuesday, I would like for you to read two things. We will be spending time with a variety of resources available to you in Newfoundland and Labrador on Tuesday but in order to be able to look at the resources with a thoughtful eye, you have some prep work to do.
Two things:
1. Please read the short chapter 4 in our text, Planning in the Problem-Solving Classroom. It takes up textbooks as just one resource for teachers (not the only source);
2. Choose a grade level from K-6 that interests you the most, and read the Math Curriculum guide for that grade, paying most attention to the first 15 or so pages (the Front Matter) and then make yourself somewhat familiar with the rest of the guide for that grade.
By doing this you will put yourself in a good position to be able to answer the kinds of questions I am going to be asking of you as you review the resources.
See you shortly! (and no...I do not expect anyone to have read this before class today).
