There are many uses for glyphs. They are often used for students to share information about themselves. While the glyphs are being created, students are engaged with other topics such as counting, literacy, geometric shapes, etc. A traditional snowman glyph legend and template is included. Extending the idea of “reading” a glyph and connecting it to problem solving creates some interesting and rich tasks for students. The following set of glyphs can be used in centers or during instruction to help develop students’ observation skills, logical reasoning and problem-solving skills.

A variety of ideas and resources will be shared that can be used to support retention of material as well as enrichment. The resources and activities engage students during the summer break so they are ready to hit the ground running as they return to school in the fall.

NCTM’s gift to the world is their Illuminations website. This webinar gives an overview of the website and all the treasures it has for teachers of all ages and all levels.

Understanding multiple representations are one way that students show evidence of fluency with a topic. See how using multiple representations while investigating place value can help students deepen their understandings of this foundational topic. Several pieces of children’s literature will be shared as well.

Patterns anyone? Mathematics has at its heart patterns. Students must be provided multiple opportunities to discover and find patterns on their own if they are to make meaning and develop understandings. See how various types of patterns can be explored using the TI-15.

A look at situations that are meaningful to students and that use inequalities. A look at the two concepts on which inequalities are based will be shared as well as a variety of applications using inequalities.

Twelve is the second teen number that beginning mathematicians encounter. Unlike eleven, the number twelve does have a more prominent role in our daily lives. There are usually a dozen eggs in an egg carton at the grocery. There are 12 hours on the face of a clock. In the English Standard Measurement System there are 12 inches in a foot. So today is all about 12. We'd really like to hear about your experience with our resources. Just give it a star rating then tell us what you think, simple as that!
