Last day of CAMT
I waited 2 hours in line just for the Dinah Zikes presentation. Of course it is one of the best note-taking ideas I have seen and so popular. It was worth the wait.
Overall, it was a great conference. I received lots of great ideas and need to stew on them to work them into my lessons for the new school year.

What I love about summer...
Not only do I enjoy the amazing time off with no kids yelling my name out or complaining about every minute thing, I also love the time to go to workshops shops to rejuvenate my mind and awesome ideas for my class.
As a math teacher, it is essential to keep fresh and original...students bore so easily. My experience at CAMT has been a good one. Thanks Mrs H for the wonderful review ideas. I have bored myself with test reviews. And D with the cool techie ideas, which I flock to like a mouth to a flame.
Each year brings new and difficult struggles...but we must "keep swimming"for the sake of the students.
If you are interested in great review ideas, Mrs H (mathtalesfromthespring.blogspot.com) has some wicked cool stuff.
Now, it's off to the races to scheme away. :-)
