The best way to have a long teaching career is to make peace as soon as you can with the fact that you’ll never get everything done and some things will just get left.
Which is ridiculous when you think about it, but true.
So fun watching @PNaanou and Ms. Johnson’s Algebra 2 students work through a factoring string yesterday! Student discussions were rich and meaningful @FallsChurchHS @MathematicsFcps #buildingthinkingclassrooms #weareFC

First day of school and my classroom “roommate” @msgraymathclass and I did two different tasks in our Algebra 2 classes today and I loved getting to see her students and then mine. #buildingthinkingclassrooms #FirstDayFairfax #weareFC @FallsChurchHS @MathematicsFcps

Get yourself a coworker as amazing and thoughtful as @AllysonPak 🥰🤗
I tried thin slicing from building thinking classrooms for the first time this week and it was amazing. I took no pictures because I was so in awe with the work students were doing.
It was truly magical to see students build on prior knowledge of fraction operations and extend their thinking to new scenarios. The perseverance and engagement was unlike any other structure I’ve used.

Virginia Tech has an ELITE women’s basketball team that is getting BETTER game by game. I love the support they receive don’t get me wrong, but I want more. There shouldn’t be an empty seat in Cassell Coliseum. These ladies DESERVE IT. They do it on both ends! – at Lugo, Spain

I’m seeing a growing number of students complain: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into the course.”
Public service announcement: You don’t get an A for effort. You earn it for excellence.
Success is measured by the level of mastery you show, not how hard you work.
Beyond proud of my double block Algebra 2 IB Apps students who productively struggled through unfamiliar factoring jigsaw problems, then shared what they learned with their classmates. They inspire me with their collaboration, critical thinking, and risk taking🥹 @AnnandaleAtoms
