Thinking About Building on Students’ Prior Mathematical Knowledge
Area(s) of Focus: math
Division(s): Junior
Level(s): Grade 4, Grade 5, Grade 6
Resource(s) Available:
This project investigated how teaching practices can be enhanced through focusing on eliciting and building upon students’ mathematical thinking. The inquiry took place in three junior classes on probability, geometry and measurement.

Keyword(s):
co-teaching, geometry, measurement, probability, student thinking

MHF4U: Spiralling in the Vertical Classroom
Area(s) of Focus: math, technology
Division(s): Senior
Level(s): Grade 12
Resource(s) Available:
We designed an activity-based, student-centred course plan for MHF4U for our classrooms with vertical non-permanent surfaces. The lessons and activities do not follow a unit/chapter plan, they spiral through the curriculum.
