reThinking Numeracy 2017

Have you ever wished you could multiply yourself with a room filled with 20+ students?  Simple tech tools are allowing us to do just that.  In this workshop, you will learn how to use short, teacher-created videos that will help you to effectively manage a range of hands-on mathematical engagements, allowing you to maximize time, increase engagement and autonomy, and give you the freedom to spend more time meeting with small groups of students.  

There are many ways to multiply yourself, but in this workshop we will use Seesaw as our platform.  Please have the free Seesaw Class app downloaded on your device or the web link set to your Internet browser.

*Note: You are able to attend one or both half hour Snapshot sessions.
