How will learning Number Sense effect learning basic math facts?

Thank you to Mary for taking a look at my Action Research plan and leaving comments.  I struggled with getting my Action Research Plan to "Link up" to my blog.  I finally did it, but left off the school goal and My goal for my project.  So, here it is:

SCHOOL VISION: Each student is prepared beyond High School and gains academic success!

GOAL:  All level of students gain number sense to help them with the ability to memorize math facts, and through research see if students are developmentally ready to memorize facts.

Hope you are all having a fabulous week!

If You're Green, You're Growing

My favorite quote this week has come from Dr. Timothy Chargois, Director or Research, Planning and Development in Beaumont I.S.D.  In an Interview for my action research class he stated "If you're green, you're growing; if you're brown, you're dying."  He was emphasising the fact that educators can never stop being learners.  I believe this sums up, for me, what I am learning through this week's assignments.  Through action research in our schools, or districts, we are able to learn best practices for our educators and our students.  We will discover what will create the most effective school cultures and, in the process perhaps challenge our own thinking. Action research will help drive our own continuing education as we search out the answers to our "wonder's" and "what if's."
