New lessons in our math library: Quick image lessons designed Jane Tom

We have added a series of Quick Image lessons to our math library designed by Jane Tom, a Grade 1/2 teacher from Pegamigaabo School (Big Grassy First Nation). In these Quick Image challenges, students are presented with an image for five seconds. They then have to visualize it and recreate it from memory. We would like to thank Jane Tom, who is an innovative teacher and effectively integrates technology into daily classroom activities, for contributing these lessons.

Although Jane designed the lessons for her primary classroom, we have found that these Quick Image activities can be easily adapted to fit the needs of students in Early Years, Junior, and Intermediate grades.

We would like to thank Lyn Blackburde (Principal, Pegamigaabo School, Big Grassy First Nation) for welcoming us to her school. We would also like to thank the amazing educators in the school and Seven Generations Education Institute (Kim Kirk, Shelly Jones, and Aimee Beazley) for collaborating with us on this journey to make math more accessible for all students.
