Those are some
amazing educators you’ve got going up there! Thanks for starting off a fantastic 2024. Looks like you’re in good hands for 2025!
Hardly seems possible that one year ago we had @mathgeek76 at @StocktonUnified. Thanks for getting our series of amazing speakers started. A few more days until @Sean_Nank and @DrIndiaMath
It’s a pleasure and an honor to serve all the amazing BTC teachers in @LISDSecMath! Thanks for helping me grow and being on the journey with us!
Cra z how fast time can fly by when you’re having FUN w/ @BTCthinks
Huge thanks to @mathgeek76 and all our GHS & DMS teachers this week. My fav launch this week was the paper airplane stat lesson for MA6. Uber engagement by students! @LISDSecMath @lisdcurriculum @pgliljedahl

Elem, MS, and HS @LeanderISD math teachers together engaging in @BTCthinks practices with @mathgeek76 My fav part of the day was learning how BTC grading practices can create student ownership and agency with only small shifts. @LISDSecMath @lisdelemmath @pgliljedahl

Day 1 of 3 in the books with @mathgeek76 and the great @TomGlennHS math teachers. Alg and Geom @BTCthinks lessons around similar figures and simplifying expressions w/exponents. The students worked HARD! #tiredbrains @LISDSecMath

Hey BTC Community! It's time to submit your proposals to present at the #BuildingThinkingClassrooms Conference!
We want YOU to share the incredible work you are doing!
Submit and share at btc2025.sched.com/info.
@BTCthinks
It was a pleasure and and honor to serve the fine folks at Leander ISD. Thanks for having me. #thinkingclassrooms
Elementary math teachers at the #1LISD Continuous Improvement Conference enjoy learning about Building Thinking Classrooms with and from the great @mathgeek76! #MathRocks 🙌🏼

"It's a hierarchical blame game." @mathgeek76
I was just having this conversation with @kdykema yesterday. We need MORE vertical alignment conversations, MORE learning from our colleagues who teach different grade bands. More awareness that we're one stepping stone on the path.

Hey #ATMNE24 !
Join me (and a bunch of my math friends) to reflect on and dig deeper into ideas & themes from the ATMNE ‘24 conference
➡️What: ATMNE EdCamp
➡️When: Friday 10/25
➡️Where: Wentworth
#Math @marriamath @NaomiEdelman @jszymaszekmath @Sneffleupagus
ALT ATMNE Conference EdCamp Wentworth
If linear functions are just first degree polynomials, then why is the standard form for lines different from standard forms for higher degree polynomials?
Why do we care about Ax + By = C? And why are we spending hours and hours of math class teaching it?
Asking for a friend.
ChatGpt offered this nugget.
In short, we care about the standard form Ax + By = C because it’s a simple, powerful, and flexible way to represent linear relationships in both abstract math and real-world applications.
I’m not buying it. Come
at me #mtbos #iteachmath. Tell me.

Every time I get the opportunity to engage in learning that is a result of @pgliljedahl research & recommended practices 4 optimal mathematics tchng, I walk away with even more to share. What a great 1st day with @mathgeek76 and this learning series. @LISDSecMath @lisdelemmath
chase orton retweeted
@TomGlennHS and @DanielsonMiddle math teachers highly engaged in a discussion with @mathgeek76 about productive struggle and instructional moves to facilitate deep levels of learning in their #thinkingclassrooms
It’s a pleasure and an honor supporting you on your #thinkingclassrooms journey.
Too many pics to share and too many people to thank! A truly collaborative and community building day among educators. 🤜🏼 to @pgliljedahl and @mathgeek76 for sharing tools and practices to help our students become better mathematicians! #1LISD @LISDSecMath

unable to attend the @BTCthinks conference due to the @WestJet strike…continuing to work through it on my own & learn from the resources that were shared by participants! So many a-ha’s! Excited about assessment growth & connections to the work my school has already been doing

The same task can be non/curricular and work for a whole range: k-12.
The process/curricular focus or learning intention will determine how to launch and where to stop.
@mathgeek76: sssshhh...math is so cool.

@robertkaplinsky @openmiddle tasks that are simple, unexpected, concrete, credible, emotional, and story-driven are sticky attributes for kids… and teachers too! 😀 @mathgeek76 this happens to be your task!
