The Metric System


The metric system is not probably a difficult concept but we tend to do it really boring. Why don't we make a connection with real life situations? A nice project should be to find three pictures of objects of different dimensions and put them in order in the classroom.

You can take some of this pictures from the website:

Students love to make connections and touch things!!!!

Make your class a microscope or a telescope!!!

Why don't we exercise our minds?


How many of you think you are not good at math?

Have you ever thought that you are not born intelligent enough to understand maths or science?

That's so FALSE!!!!

However they have made you feel in that way and you have given up on trying and you have become bad at maths!!!!

But you are still in time. Let's give another chance and you will see how your brain grows!!!!


It is about time to show the world that you are AWESOME and INTELLIGENT !!!!

Are you ready to start?


It is the beginning of the school year and we are all excited about what we are going to do, how our students are going to react... But we don't have to forget motivation, specially at the beginning of the year. We need to tell our students that they are allowed to fail, to make a mistake... Actually it is the only way to learn. You should tell them that their future is not written, that they can be good at math, they can develop their brains!!!!
You can use that video to do that:


Have a wonderful school year!!!! Enjoy learning!!!!!
