We played Money Fingers to learn coin names and values. “Research indicates that our brains are wired to think visually, especially when it comes to mathematics, so utilizing visual representations can enhance learning significantly”. (YouCubed) @c_conrad14

Fun “Book character day” at Traver Road! There were several Pete the Cats. @c_conrad14

I try to be a very positive person but I will admit that I started today in a bad mood. @GeorgeCouros completely fixed my mindset! He was inspirational, positive and a fantastic speaker. He was exactly what I needed to start my school year! @MrsWheelerOPS @c_conrad14

Incredibly proud of my nephew/godson on all of his determination and hard work to get to this level! Looking forward to going to games.

Fun morning at OPS celebrating our math skills! We used math knowledge to figure out who the Super Hero was so we could save “Mathatten”. Today, we dressed up like super heroes to celebrate. @MrsWheelerOPS

RT @rpi: Congratulations and best wishes, graduates!

Congratulations to Ketcham Class of 2022- especially my 3 graduates! @KetchamNation

A personal post- My senior triplets went “Back to the Nest” this morning. Beaming smiles seeing the teachers that taught, supported, & loved them years ago. The teachers smiles full of pride seeing the success & kind humans they turned into, knowing they had a part in it. ❤️💙❤️

A few more Super Hero Math Detectives at Traver… @c_conrad14 @ValleyPTA

Today was super hero/math detective day at Traver Road! This wrapped up Math Mystery Mondays in May. Classes were given a clue every Monday to help them solve the Case of the Super Bad Superhero. They saved Mathhatten with their math skills! Well done, Traver Road!

A really fun way to practice showing time on an analogue clock is to play a special version of the game “What time is it, Mr. Fox?” We had so much fun! @MrsWheelerOPS

When your brilliant students finish the lesson you’ve planned early, you explore geometric shapes for fun! @MrsWheelerOPS

It’s been a great 2s Day! The kids loved my shirt and we had a 2 minute dance party at 2:22 on 2/22/22! Today was a math teachers dream! 🤣 @c_conrad14

Spider Man gets it! “You know what’s cooler than magic? Math!” He’s now my favorite Marvel character! 🕷 Definitely putting that quote on a tshirt. Hope everyone is enjoying family time!

Sports Day at Traver. We matched well in our red, white & blue jerseys! @c_conrad14

It was a beautiful day to improve our number recognition on a giant hundreds chart! @c_conrad14

Just getting started with my 1st graders & got an “aha” moment already! Love when that happens! Did you know that if you go down 1 row on a hundreds chart, you are adding 10 so if you’re on 8 and you go down 1 row you land on 18 which is the same as 8+10=18?! Aha!.
