What are your thoughts on his research?

Got Cuisenaire rods?

Hey Math teachers. Happy Pi Day. In the spirit of celebrating numbers, what does the number 1 actually mean? We've been learning about the incredible versitility of using Cuisenaire Rods. Check out this video and let us know what you think.



P.S. There's one math mistake in the video. Did you spot it?

Welcome!

Dear Teachers & Staff of HFCRD37,

Welcome to our blog, 4Everlearners. This blog is always under construction, always changing as we change and grow and learn as educators.

If you'd like to know more about who we are and what we do, watch our prezi on the About Us page and our FAQs page. But enough about us! We created this blog for two reasons:

1. To challenge ourselves to improve our technology skills.
2. For you.

We hope it will be a place where you can be inspired, find ideas, share your thoughts, collaborate and more. Our criteria for posts is based on three words: short, quick, easy. With that in mind, we will always be open to your suggestions, comments and feedback.

Thank you for spending some of your valuable time here.

Sincerely,
David, Spencer, Valerie & Mary
The HFCRD37 Coaching Team
