This afternoon’s meeting is focusing on the characteristics of a quality numeracy tasks.Give me a Q! Give me a U! Give me a A! Give me a L! Give me a I! Give me a T! Give me a Y! Give me Quality!

Paddy introduced us to the estimation foldable. The idea behind the foldable is that we want all our students P-6 to be consistently estimating, evaluating and naming the strategy used when calculating problems.

What other ways could you introduce this language in your classroom?

Examples of Quality Tasks:

Count on cubes:

Secret Pairs:

Bingo Halving/Doubling:

Dominoes-Higher/Lower:

The product presentation looks modern and well organized, with attention to packaging, product details, and overall appearance. Vape Wizard DXB seems focused on creating a convenient shopping experience for customers looking for clear information.https://vapewizarddxb.com/brand/myle/
