PSA: Stop saying that you teach ‘the low kids.’ There are no low kids. Maybe low support, maybe low learning environments, maybe low curriculum and maybe even low teaching. But, there. Are. No. Low. Kids.
Free High Impact PD! Check out the sessions and the speakers - I'm looking forward to learning. summit.makemathmoments.com/
Great structure for a virtual environment!
#Math must read! 💛 Try It, Talk It, Color It, Check = great strategy for structuring online sessions to encourage critical thinking, relationship building & collaboration!Adapting an Effective Math Collaboration Activity for Distance Learning #mathchat edutopia.org/article/adaptin…

Compiled this @Desmos as Ss' 1st experience w/ variables on both sides eq. They began it on their own after finishing a quiz yesterday.
I'm learning a TON about Ss' initial thoughts by asking, "What questions do you have for me?" 😍

Great stuff right here 👇
I wrote up all the ways that I build community and have students engage in virtual math class that don't require webcams. No special apps needed besides Zoom, Google Slides, and Google Jamboard. @howie_hua @MrsParkShine @IllustrateMath #MTBoS #iteachmath

The answer to whether a hotdog is a sandwich!
Started class today with a non-math q: is a burrito a sandwich? Then one S informed me of the “cube rule of food” and it became a mathematical question followed by a proof. Mind blown. #iteachmath
