This test is designed as a brief survey to identify the possibility of the presence of the learning
disability Dyscalculia, a problem that can interfere with a student’s ability to understand and use
math and spatial reasoning. Because this quiz is general and designed to be used throughout the
elementary grades, younger students may not understand all of the questions. This is normal and not
a big source of concern.

1x1 Guru's novel way for teaching multiplication tables:
Utilizing cutting-edge educational technology to master the multiplication tables. Children may learn the multiplication tables effortlessly, independently, and with a lot of fun by using mental imagery.
It is an original and cutting-edge teaching strategy that revolutionizes the laborious study of multiplications. The child gains enormous self-confidence as math, and particularly the 1x1, is made to seem like an easy pastime.
The toddler also picks up mental arithmetic quickly.
This course has fantastic conversion rates and does well with parents and educators.

EdTech SA 2017 Presentation Joanne VillisJoanne Villis
Abstract: With a current emphasis on coding in the media, other components of the Australian
Digital Technologies Curriculum often get pushed aside. This session will explore practical ideas for
teaching the following concepts: Data (representing, managing & analysing), Digital systems
(understanding & using), Algorithms (coding), Information systems (how and why people use them)
and Safe and ethical use of the online environment. Practical ideas will be provided for each concept
across Reception to Year 6. I believe that viewing resources across a range of year levels provides
teachers with a more holistic understanding of the Digital Technologies Curriculum.
How to teach digital technologies in the Primary yearsJoanne Villis
This presentation was based on a scope and sequence I created for Reception to Year 6 teachers in order to teach the Australian Digital Technologies curriculum.
Social Media: Teaching ideas for Primary EducationJoanne Villis
The legal age for students to use many social media sites is 13 however many media sites are targeted at and being accessed by our primary students. So what should we do about it? Ban social media or educate? I believe that we need to educate students how to use social media safely and appropriately before they are even old enough to use it. These are my teaching ideas. Many of the ideas are videos. Why? Our students are living in a media rich environment, why not embrace their media culture?

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Unit 8 - Information and Communication Technology (Paper I).pdfThiyagu K
This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
4. Australian Curriculum
Year 3
Recognise and explain the connection between addition and subtraction (ACMNA054)
Represent and solve problems involving multiplication using efficient mental and written
strategies and appropriate digital technologies (ACMNA057)
Year 4
Use equivalent number sentences involving addition and subtraction to find unknown
quantities (ACMNA083)
5. Whiteboard Wonders
Use your whiteboard as a number wonder board. To do this, you need to ‘hand
over’ your whiteboard to your students. Each week, write a wonder question on
the board and allow students to share their answers. Examples of wonder
questions might include:
- The answer is 13. I wonder what the question might be?
- The answer is the product of 6 and 3. I wonder what the question might be?
- Ms Villis had $23 but now she only has $8. I wonder what happened to her
money?
6. Whiteboard Wonders
- The sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 312. I wonder what the numbers might
be?
- The answer is numbers. I wonder what the question might be?
- I subtracted an odd number from an even number and got the answer of 41.
What might the odd and even numbers be?
- I had some lollies and I gave away some. Now I have 15 left. How many might I
have started with?
7. What might the number sentence be?
1. On a smart board or whiteboard write the numbers 6 and 9. Ask students
what is the total of 6 and 9? How did they work it out? What was the number
sentence they used? (ie 6+9= 15). How else might we write the number
sentence? (ie 9+5=15 or 15= 6+9 or 15=9+6).
Many student may comment that 15=6+9 looks weird. This is because many
may not be used to seeing this. Emphasise that a number sentence is like a set
of scales, what ever is on one side of the equals symbol is equal to, balances or
is equivalent to the other side.
8. What might the number sentence be?
2. Ask students, what is the total of 9 an 23? How many ways can they think of
in order to solve the problem?
3. Invite students to consider a total of 15. What symbols and numbers can
they use to write a number sentence with the total being 15. For example,
10+5= 15, 4+11=15, 20-5=15, 3x5=15, 30/2=15.
4. Write the numbers 8, 15 and 7 on the board. Invite the class to brainstorm
how they might use each of the numbers to create a number sentence. For
example:
8+7=15 or 7+8=15 or 15=8+7 or 15-8=7 etc.
9. What might the number sentence be?
5. Write the numbers 1, 2, 3 and 6 on a board. Brainstorm possible number
sentences as a class. For example,
1+2+3=6 or 6= 1+2+3 or 3x2= 6x1 or 2x3=1x6 or 6/1= 3x2
6. Then ask students to individually explore the possible number sentences for
2, 6, 12 and 4. Encourage to consider addition, subtraction, multiplication and
division.
7. What about the numbers 74, 87 and 161? What could the number
sentences be?
10. What might the number pattern be?
8. Give students open ended worded problems like the one below:
Zac created an addition number pattern which contained the number 20.
What could the pattern be?
Then substitute the word ‘addition’ with subtraction, multiplication and
division. You can also make the number larger. Remember to ask students to
explain their pattern (ie write a rule).
Teaching idea came from Y3 Work Samples Online:
http://www.australiancurriculum.edu.au/mathematics/Curriculum/F-
10?layout=1#level3
11. What might the number sentences be?
9. The answer to a division question is 5. What might the question be?
10. The answer to a division question is 3. What might the question be?
11. The answer to a multiplication question is 100. What might the question be?
12. Use the digits 5, 4, 2, 5 and 3 with the + and – symbol to create a total of 72.
How might you do this? (ie 54+23-5=72). This is an extension activity.
12. iPad Apps

13. Worded problem online generator
My favourite online worded problem generator is a free website
called Maths.aid.com . You can select the operation of the worded
problems which you would like, their difficulty (1 digit or 2 digits)
and if you would like any irrelevant information included.
