Passionate about sharing how everyone sees the world differently - especially in a math classroom. Always learning from what others share.

Wondering what schools offer a 4 yr teaching degree for HS math & what the requirements are for math & Ed #iteachmath #mtbos

Teacher pondering: How often are the students we have on "intervention" watchlists only there because we refuse to change our practice? Happy Wednesday :)

Square vs circle patties-think I am missing something. Can anyone help make sense of their thinking? #iteachmath @tara_devaughn @northpoleteach

Any ideas for an activity that gets at how important clear directions are besides making PB & jelly sandwiches? #MTBoS #iteachmath @tara_devaughn

Wanting to update this activity on congruency. map.mathshell.org/lessons.ph… How do you have students share pics from their camera of work they have done to the whole class for discussion? #iteachmath @alicekeeler @tara_devaughn @MrEru2001

Struggling w/students sharing whole class. Trying to build community & mindset. Did one cut geometry last week. Looking for more ideas. Thoughts? #MTBoS #iteachmath

Looking for a geometry activity using description of locus for shapes. Anyone have anything like that? #iteachmath #MTBoS @mathequalslove @saravdwerf @tara_devaughn

Still available...teaching division involving fractions conceptually mini lessons. 😀
Looking for Gr 5 lessons on Division in Involving Unit Fractions? See hand2mindathome.com/ I share 5 days of instruction-10 min. video lessons + activity pages. Go to Gr 5, Week 9. @hand2mind #iteachmath #elemmathchat @nctm Day 1 video is posted here: youtube.com/watch?v=FexOxWW-…

Trouble w/Ss coming up w/the nth term...wondering about approach. Focus on describing how the pattern grows & the visual. Do we look at a table of values - or will that push them to come up with a formula for the numbers and not the visual? What do you think? #iteachmath #MtBos
We tried to recreate our pic from the 2017 Alaska Cross Content Conference in Fairbanks. Just missing Ron Clark @mrronclark_ @northpoleteach

Wondering if anyone has an observation form for mathematical thinking to document and track student thinking. #iteachmath #MTBoS @TracyZager @JBayWilliams @ksquaredmath1

End of the “semester” for one group of Ss. Love asking what they have learned and what they like best. Never know what you will get. This one made me cry...what I want for ALL kids.

Replying to @dyong
@dyong and others playing games with Ss on Zoom. Found this Set w/ friends game today where a whole class can play Set on the same screen and it keeps score. We all unmuted and laughed and trash talked and it was a blast. #mtbos #iteachmath setwithfriends.com/

My students ❤️zukei puzzles! Any ideas of other puzzles like these they might like? #iteachmath #MTBoS @Trianglemancsd @mathequalslove @tara_devaughn

Teaching remote & in person is so hard! Asked for feedback from Ss & they told me what they needed. Some was hard to hear & some was a good reminder about what I need to do to make sure everyone feels included. But this is a no win. #iteachmath #MTBoS

Benefit to remote teaching...when a student asks a question you can't answer, you are able to text a friend to join your group to help us make sense of the question. No driving/waiting for them to get to the school - just jump in. Fun Friday! Thx @tara_devaughn #MtBos #iteachmath
