A Social and Holistic Approach to Numeracy
A Social and Holistic Approach to Numeracy
http://socialnumeracy.ca/index.htm
This website was prepared as part of a two-year project (2009-2011): “Numeracy at Work: A Social and Holistic Approach to Math as an Essential Skill.” Funded by the Office of Literacy and Essential Skills (Human Resources and Skills Development Canada), the project was led by the Labour Education Centre in partnership with the Canadian Union of Public Employees and Workplace Education Manitoba.
Some pages describe the approach and the project. Under Activities you will find 13 low-tech activities that will help learners develop number sense and apply math skills to real life situations.

With this site, I hope to create what I did not have myself: a vibrant, encouraging, stimulating community of teachers, supporting each other toward excellence. I believe if we can reach across the limits of geography and find each other, there’s no limit to the amazing things we can accomplish.
