	Description:		If you’re on social media at all, then you probably saw news summaries claiming that a recent World Health Organization reports says bacon and red meat cause cancer. Kate and Dave use number sense to look at the validity of this claim, as well as discuss the concrete-representational-abstract model of mathematics pedagogy that can lead to greater mathematical understandings for our students.
