Sun West Students in 1-9 have access to this resource! Contact your administrator for login information.

PARENTS - you have access to printable workbooks from the student console as well!
*Click "learn", then select an activity. If there is a printable notebook available for that concept it will be on the right side of the screen. When you scroll down on the right side you will see conceptual videos, interactives and printables (in yellow box). Please note that the printable materials are there only if there is one available for the activity you selected. If you do not see a printable, try selecting a different activity.

This handout provides teachers with a starting list of resources to implement The Big 5, and leaves room for them to add their favourites.

Students will get a number and record it in the circle. They will then fill in the blank spaces surrounding the number with numbers that come before and after their selected number.

All materials included.

Get DEEPER Math learning from your students. Get them thinking.

Grades K-12
Worksheets and THINKING activities are organized by strand on the right side of the website.

There is a great worksheet called "Open Middle Worksheet" on the top right for kids to document their process for problem solving. It gives them up to 6 attempts and the ability to explain what they have learned and how they need to change their approach for the next attempt.

This site accompanies the book "Open Math" by Robert Kaplinsky, but you do NOT need the book to benefit from these excellent questions.

Click "Get Our Favorite Problems" to get started (you will need to enter your info.) or use the menu organized by grade and strand on the right side of the page.

Free webinars are also recorded and available for elementary and secondary teachers to help "rethink classwork"

Example Question - Grade 3 - How many numbers are there between 1 and 3? (great way to introduce fractions).

This is a collection of QR Codes that link to resources to help students meet the required math learning outcomes for Grade 4 Math. These codes could be used as part of playlists for students when working to meet specific outcomes.

This site houses printables for teaching using Hattie's methods for Mathematics.

Templates, rubrics, prompts, checklists and more are provided!

The menu on the left side also links to several very valuable videos about teaching math using surface, deep and transfer strategies.

The resource Sample Math Outcome Questions: An Assessment Resource for Teachers:

GRADES 1 to 9 NOW AVAILABLE.

*provides possible questions, sample responses and rubrics for classroom instruction and assessment is not mandatory.
*was created to support the teaching and learning of mathematics. It can be adapted by teachers to meet the individual needs of their students.
*can be used before, during and/or after classroom instruction as formative or summative assessment(s).
*is designed to elicit responses that inform teachers’ understanding of the skills and concepts that students need to know, understand and are able to do.

This resource primarily assesses students using written response. Indicators that include terms such as research or collect data (for example) are ideally assessed by means other than a written response. Subsequently, teachers must keep in mind that using this resource provides only one of many forms of evidence that teachers collect to report on student achievement of the outcome.

Each resource includes the outcome, indicators, sample assessment and answer key.

This document has links to 7 grade specific units for FNME infused math. Keep in mind that these lessons can be altered to be used with any grade.

Objective: Your goal is to create a maze for the Sphero in which you code it to go through a variety of obstacles and requirements!

"The Visible LearningTM research base is the culmination of his quest over the past 25 years to answer this question and represents more than 1,600 meta-analyses comprising more than 96,000 studies involving more than 300 million students around the world.

Through the Visible LearningTM research, John Hattie has identified more than 250 factors that influence student achievement. He then set about calculating a score or “effect size” for each, according to its bearing on student achievement. The average effect size of these 250 factors was 0.4, a marker that can be shown to represents an (average) year’s growth per year of schooling for a student. Any factor that has an effect size above 0.4 has an even greater positive effect on student learning.

Each of these factors have been categorized into one of nine domains

StudentFactors relating to background, beliefs, and physical influences
Home Factors relating to family resources, structure, and environment
School Factors related to school-type, pre-school, school composition, and leadership
Classroom Factors related to class composition, giftedness, and classroom influences
Teacher Factors relating to teacher attributes, teacher-student interactions, and teacher education
Curricula Factors related to various curricula programs
Student Learning Strategies Factors relating to self-regulation, student perspectives, and learning strategies
Teaching Strategies Factors relating to learning intentions, success criteria, feedback, and teaching strategies
Technology, School, and Out-Of-School StrategiesFactors relating to technology, school-wide methods, and out of school learning"
