That’s a wrap! Thank you to @NCTM for organizing another fabulous conference and THANK YOU to @LCPS_Math for the opportunity to attend! #NCTMDC23 #mtbos #iteachmath

Got to meet 2 more math SUPERSTARS today! 😍 @pgliljedahl @APCalcTchr @NCTM #NCTMDC23

Good morning, DC! Ready for another day of inspiration and learning at #NCTMDC23! @NCTM

😍😍😍

“Inviting, Listening to, and Leveraging Students’ Ideas: It All Starts with Noticing and Wondering” with @ClaireVerti and Notice & Wonder Woman @MFAnnie was a great reminder to accept ALL answers verbatim without “revoicing.” Check out my cool new laptop sticker! @NCTM #NCTMDC23

SO EXCITED I got to meet @ddmeyer! “Make Yourself a Technology-Proof Teacher” was a wonderful reminder that teaching is the process of inviting, celebrating, and developing student thinking! “Students like and learn from teachers who like and learn from them.” @NCTM #NCTMDC23

Next: “Centering Students as the Facilitators of Discourse” with @annmgaffney and Anna Roberds. How we as teachers can give students the space to generate thoughtful questions because we learn mathematics through TALKING about it! Great new task idea, too! @NCTM #NCTMDC23

Happy @NCTM Day! Thrilled to be here with so many @LCPS_Math teachers!!! #NCTMDC23

Today a student in @CherylHelbing's Geometry class asked why there are 360 degrees in a circle - a great question and I didn't know the answer! A quick Google search yielded a lot of interesting information but no definitive answer! @RoarPride @LCPS_Math #mtbos #iteachmath

A thought-provoking read: To Address Learning Gaps, Go Deeper ascd.org/el/articles/to-addr… via @ASCD

Ss in @lvhsPiMan's class have been learning to count... in other bases! One S shared a magic trick based on 😉 base 2. Turns out there was a "bug" in the trick, which sparked a great discussion about how much we learn from mistakes and de-bugging code! @LVHS_official @LCPS_Math

Mr. Powers fosters international mindedness with his intro to the squeeze theorem! He shared the French (Théorème des gendarmes) and Russian names and some of the history behind it. His accompanying graphic also helped the theorem stick with his Ss! @LVHS_official @LCPS_Math

Mrs. Andrea got her students communicating at the beginning of class with a slow reveal graph (slowrevealgraphs.com), and they later engaged in a collaborative learning station! @LVHS_official @LCPS_Math #MTBoS #ITeachMath

So glad I had the opportunity to join one of @LVHSmathkat's classes for a data talk from the @nytimes, and another class for a powerful reflection activity! @LVHS_official @LCPS_Math #MTBoS #ITeachMath

Mrs. Polinski set a great tone for the year by having students complete the 100 Numbers task in groups, write individual reflections on what group work looks and sounds like in math, and share out in small and whole groups on the first day of class! @RoarPride @LCPS_Math #MTBoS
