a humbling experience: a lesson goes badly (students are confused). you replan a different lesson with the same learning objective for the afternoon classes. students are still confused.

I want students to be able to justify that vertical angles are congruent (which is also their intro to mathematical proof). Any ideas on activities to scaffold this? #mtbos #iteachmath #geomchat

Our district PD today was a 3 hour video of a keynote given at some conference and before you ask, of course this was an outside edu consulting company that provided this "training" truly comical levels of phoning it in lmao

The "fun" question of the day was "how much money would it take for you to eat a whole piece of paper?" One kid said, "I'd do it for free" and then proceeded to slowly eat an entire sheet of printer paper during class. I've never laughed harder lmao

for those who have used the @statsmedic skittles lesson, do you give each kid a sample of 5 random skittles (repeated colors ok) or each kid exactly one of each color? Trying to figure out which makes more sense with the conditions
