    While I was interpreting the test data I thought about my observations of the student during testing. The observation of the length of time he spent on problems and his often use of his fingers to calculate basic math, initiated my research. I began finding a plethora of research about the importance of math fluency for student success. Math fluency is a student’s ability to quickly recall math facts. A student who has developed automaticity with basic math facts is able to use their entire working memory on the higher level math instead of squandering some of their limited working memory to figure out all of the math facts necessary to solve the problem.…

Although Morales does give emphasis to the “common” burrito, she also introduces the modified burrito and how the burrito has adapted to society and changed over the years. The author then reminisces back to her youth when her mother would give her and her siblings burritos to eat in the car during errands or while waiting for the car to be washed.…

    1. Introduction Focusing on the case of Daniel Garcia, this paper examines the limits of a universal individualist legal framework for the rights of undocumented migrant children in Canada. Daniel Garcia was an eighteen-year old when he was apprehended by police in Toronto and deported from Canada in 2011 (CITE). As the analysis will show, this case exemplifies the problems of Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (2001) and sheds lights on how the law breaches children’s rights as defined by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. It is an exemplary case of how a universal rights framework has serious limitations for undocumented migrants, including children, arguably the most vulnerable undocumented migrants of all.…
