When I attended the NCTM Regional Conference in Chicago in November 2012, I heard a very dynamic speaker named, Pamela Weber Harris. She had a speaking style that I love- very engaging with many stories about her family and experiences in the classroom.
I bought her book and it is truly life-changing from a math perspective. I am so ready to try these ideas and see how teaching mental math with number strings can improve numeracy in my students. I'm looking forward to summer and writing some SmartBoard lessons for this. I really think that my students will learn so much from this approach.
What do you think?
