… It’s that O-G training… I decided I wanted to incorporate “connecting representations” from the get go, from Jump Street. The link to the Google Doc that has images for number, domino icon and number line representation of the numbers 0 through 10 (yes, zero) lives here. It’s 4:00 so I shan’t try to upload […]

Still, lots of them […]
