5 years ago I was celebrating 72 days post brain surgery! God is Good! I walk, I talk, I drive, I laugh, I cry, and I teach math. What more could I ask for? I am blessed!
My husband sends his entire family to an environment where we could all die. We aren’t police officers or in the military. Simply a math teacher, 12th grader, and 10th grader but go ahead and keep thinking this is about your rights. This is about the NRA and money!

Research generally fails to support the idea that kids must be taught certain basic facts or skills before they can actively construct conceptual understanding. So some traditionalists started using the term "foundational" to make their favored approach APPEAR more persuasive

Join us this Thursday to learn how to integrate culturally responsive practices into #mathematics learning: nctm.link/DHXfV
ALT Mathematics is not culture neutral.
ALT Effective mathematics instruction leverages cultural knowledge and lived experiences as assets.
ALT Effective mathematics teachers are culturally conscious.
ALT Effective schools develop systemic approaches that embrace culturally relevant mathematics instruction.

Mario Barrios walked out with Aztec Warriors to the ring. The crowd loved it. Barrios brought the spirits of the mighty Aztec Mexican Warriors.

Mariachi band doing the best version of the US anthem I've ever heard, further proof that this nation is forever carried by Immigrants #CaneloMunguia
This book changed my teaching! So honored that I get to share my learning with teachers across the nation…in a city that I love!!
This is very true. I struggling to think of one school that I have helped “turn around” and it stayed there once the leader was promoted. 🥺🥺
A ‘turnaround school’ usually reverts back to its steady decline as soon as the most recent ‘turnaround principal’ leaves. Schools don’t need to be turned around. They need to be anchored in sustainable growth and development that outlives those who lead it. #TrueTransformation
