NCTM Conference
Just spent Thursday and Friday at the NCTM Regional Conference in Baltimore. No point mincing words: I saw some amazing, and some not-so-amazing presentations, but I definitely learned something from all of them.
The first session that I attended was probably my favorite: Meaningful Models and Productive Projects for Geometry. I learned how to make a tetrahedra using an envelope, and how to make a truncated tetrahedra using a circle. Probably going to use the latter for enrichment in a few weeks. I just like making my kids make stuff... they think it's cool, too. :)
Best part of the conference was probably talking to the people in the exhibits. The people at the 24 exhibit gave me a set of 24 and made me feel appreciated as a future teacher. :)
Were YOU at the Baltimore conference? What did you learn about?
