NEW! The brand-new Ontario Kindergarten Curriculum has been released.
Almost two years after I stood with the (now former) Minister of Education to announce this update, the document is live!

NEW POST
When I moved into primary teaching, I thought guided practice just meant working through a question together.
I was wrong.
This article explains the shift I made and why accuracy skyrocketed when I did.
Includes the full Essential Guide to Explicit Instruction in Mathematics.

Dr. Archer reminds us that great teaching is clear, concise,& consistent, & that exp. inst. helps all Ss thrive. I ā¤ļø her take on reframing cold calls to warm calls by shifting from putting Ss on the spot to inviting them into safe, supported participation podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcasā¦

šØNidhi Sachdeva @nsachdeva2019 was on @TheCurrentCBC today and she did a fantastic job of explaining why Canadian kids are falling behind in math and how we can turn things around. Please give it a listen!

How does 'defronting' the classroom 'rebuild student trust'? Do students not trust teachers who stand in front of them?

Do parents know that this is the nonsense that teachers are being fed at teachersā conferences? There is absolutely no way any district should be spending money on programs that promote such obvious snake oil. Great way to ensure kids DONāT succeed in math. ā¬ļø

Today, 35 preservice teachers in the B.Ed program @TrentUSoE looked at the @ONeducation Language curriculum document and curriculum expectations for vocabulary and morphology and quickly realized itās hard to teach what you donāt know!
To prepare these preservice teachers for the classroom, we looked at the curriculum expectations, learned about free and bound bases, and how affixes can change meaning of words!
Students then explored āmorpheme matricesā to create new words & defined them in kid-friendly Langauge. It was fun, fast, and a fantastic learning experience for everyone!! #Morphology #MorphemeMagic @TrentUniversity
