6:30-7:30pm in the Senior Gym (Exit #5)
Trevor Brown – math professor, author, and former Math Consultant for the TDSB – is coming to Runnymede PS for an informative, interactive, and fun-filled evening of math! The workshop is the first in our two-part Math Education Speaker Series: Learning Mathematics in an Ever-Changing World.
Mr. Brown is a sought-after presenter who is well-versed in the Ministry of Education’s Renewed Math Strategy.
What to expect:
- Find out about the paradigm shift in how math is being taught today vs. in the past
- Learn about the math manipulatives being used in Grades 1 and 2: the Ten Frame and the Rekenrek (similar to an abacus)
- There will be math manipulatives for sale at the workshop for $3.00
Note: This workshop will be geared towards the parents of Primary (Grade 1-3) students, but all are welcome to attend.
Funding has been generously provided by a PRO (Parents Reaching Out) Grant.
The Parent Council meeting will follow in the gym at 7:30.
