[ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WaAaibOoPc][1] Nikki: My dream is for every student to learn math in ways that makes sense to them. What I want to practice: "How to adapt in the moment?" I have my plan, I have my scaffolding and the support system, but sometimes the kid goes this way! ==> [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAm90PXYYOI][2] Miranda: I want kids to enjoy maths. How do we know if what we like, such as games or drawing, counts as maths? What counts is whoever is designing curricula - I don't know who they are - say is useful... [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buAoKbud52c][3] Carol: I dream for kids to have better life through education. Stories are our oldest teaching technology, and they teach us to live fully. It's easy for me to make this connection in literature, but how do you make this connection in math? [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhTlnsSQo_M][4] Ines: I want my kids to see math as something creative and fun and interesting. I want my kids to like math before they start school and see worksheets and drills. My kids like to come up with their own ideas, and to make things. My adult students are anxious, but they need math for their dreams. It all comes back to, "How do you make math your own?"
