Concept Studio 2023

I would like to invite you to visit me in the Concept Studio.  Do you have a maths concept that you would like to explore with your students?  Let’s talk and make a date.  Incorporate Indigenous Ways of Learning, Maths, nature and fresh air!

Remote Learning

While I was working through my emails and such, I came across work done by a Math Resource teacher named Fawn Nguyen. She is a person I respect and she had done an incredible amount of work putting together 4 weeks of learning at nine levels – PreK-K to Grade 9. She uses many of […]
