Grade 5s coded Rock, Paper, Scissors simulators using #microbits and then their teacher organized a bracket tournament! 🪨 📄 ✂️ #ocsbMath #ocsbCodes @microbit.org

Some outdoor math with Grade 3s today! We measured the perimeter and area of some “puddles” with string, measuring tapes, and sit spots (nonstandard units). 💧📏 #ocsbMath #ocsb #math #ElementarySchoolMath #OntarioCurriculum #Grade3

Worked on coding sequential, repeating, and concurrent events with Grade 4s today using #micro:bits! They coded music to play while an animation flashed on the display. 🐶 🎵 @microbit.org #ocsbMath #ocsbCodes #ocsbSTEAM #ocsb

Always a blast at #SpringIntoTheOutdoors!

Looking at distractors in multiple choice questions today in Grade 3! Each group had to justify why each option was or wasn’t the answer on their whiteboards. #ocsbMath #ocsb #EQAO

Students can use mathigon.org and Polypad to hone their multiplication skills! There are fluency cards as well as d12 dice to practice facts! #ocsbMath #math #Polypad #FactFluency

Yeah, I'd rather just divide by 7

Grade 6 students looked at pseudocode and how they can use it to interpret and plan programs. They looked at some EQAO examples and coded an area calculator in Scratch for CS First! #ocsbMath #math #ocsbSTEAM #CSFirst #Scratch #EQAO #coding

Did you know you can use Cuisenaire rods to teach algebra? Students can use them to show equalities and then sub values into algebraic expressions to solve! #ocsbMath #Cuisenaire #ocsb

It's Mental Math Monday! What goes on in your head when you're mentally calculating 8×45?
