        ·   There are 22 TCs in this class, but the game would be taught in a table of 6
Big Ideas
         · The big idea is to teach them how to play with string to make nice figures/shapes
Warm-Up                                                  
          ·  Give each student in the table a small piece of string and tell them to tie them up together
2 min

        4.Since there are two nice holes with string made
        5.Put it around other fingers that don’t have string around
     6.    Pull out the string one more time to make a nice shape
5 min
Practice & Production
         · Students will have a chance to complete their own game and teacher will be there to watch them and help if they have any question

Revised Unit Plan

EDCP 342A Unit planning: Rationale and overview for planning a 3 to 4-week unit of work in secondary school mathematics Your name:  Niloofar Razzaghi School, grade & course:  R.E. Mountain Secondary School, Grade 11, Pre-Calculus Topic of unit:    Radical Expressions & Equation s (1)  Why  do we teach this unit to secondary school students?  Research and talk about the following: Why is this topic included in the curriculum? Why is it important that students learn it? What learning do you hope they will take with them from this? What is intrinsically interesting, useful, beautiful about this topic? (150 words) The goal is to show students how to solve equations with rational exponents and/or radicals. And to extend students' knowledge of solving to where an equation has either two radicals or two expressions with rational exponents. This lesson is taught to the grade 11 students and this topic is i...

Math Fair @ West Point Grey Academy

The math fair we visited at West Point Gray Academy few weeks back, was very interesting for me also different in two ways. One, since in all  other math fairs that I was attending before; my partner and I were supposed to a prepare a math game for the students to play with; we had to explain the game strategy first, guide them through it or give them some hints before they try the games individually or with a friend. We were always observing them, and were writing our observations or reflections on what were going through their minds when trying our games. Whereas in the academy, we were there to play the students math games this time. We were the ones who had to answer to the questions that students had from us. we were supposed to try their games and come up with some responses and answers. I liked the idea that this time in the academy we got the chance to try the games without explaining and describing the games to the kids. The other reason that made the fair distinguish...
