The more options we give as universal design for learning, the fewer accommodations we need for individual students later. Universal solutions benefit everyone and single out no one. #LeadInclusion #UDL #UDLchat #EduSky #ATchat

This morning was all about multiplication arrays with Grade 4’s. We made up a game called Roll it, build it, write it! We also looked at strategies to find the product and how the factors can be ‘flipped’ and the product stays the same! SD #70 #bced

Some great subtraction fact fluency today with Grade 2/3’s in SD#70! Games where all learners had access and choice. #bced

Great day of learning all things Math instruction with Carole Fullerton today! Educators across PacificRim SD#70 came together to look at planning with intention, progressions and games for fluency! @bcamt.bsky.social #bced
