The Missouri Elementary Math Leaders Initiative (MEMLI) is an NSF-funded project that pays for elementary teachers to complete 24 credits of graduate level coursework and be certified as elementary math specialists in the state of Missouri. Learn more: mizzou.us/MathSpecialist….

Sobering visit to the Little Rock High School National Historic Site today. The arenas and issues evolve, but the hate and fear persist. I'm moved by the courage of those who put themselves in harm's way to stand against it. #MidwestNoyce

@MrsDaugherty4th good question

Reflecting thought today: What is the purpose of giving elementary aged students grade percentages, when working across different concepts on an assessment? What is it really telling us about the concepts they know well and don’t know well? 🤔

Morning math at the bus stop with dad

@DrKyraYung This looks awesome!

Today we focused on restorative circles and how to plan and implement circles in our classrooms #EBELionPRIDE #CPSBest #ScholarsFirst

Cannot believe my time at #EBELionPride is coming to an end! Thanks to all the admin, teachers, and students for making me feel so welcome. I will miss you all! (Here's a very special 1st grade class that I won't be forgetting anytime soon!)

What a fantastic engaging presentation from @MrsDaugherty4th and Leah Lindaman at MCTM. Teachers K-12 were able to talk about the equal sign. #mathjoycps

Had a pretty good time with this number string today with 4th and 5th graders at #EBELionPRIDE. I'm curious, what problem would you put next in the string?

This week we put out the final episode of Crash Course Black American History. We worked on this series for over 3 years and put out 51 episodes spanning the transatlantic slave trade to the Black Lives Matter movement. I’m so proud of what we made. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

These 5th graders were INTO this #buildingfactfluency game! I like that the game includes some strategy and choice in addition to chance (and of course, practicing multiplication facts that we've been building meaning for all last week) #mathjoycps

Interesting article and comments. People certainly have lots of opinions about how to teach mathematics in elementary school...and lots of ideas about how we should decide whether or not its working... nytimes.com/2022/10/15/us/…

check out the student thinking for this Number String: 5 + 6 5 + 7 5 + 8 5 + 9 I especially liked the algebraic reasoning on the bottom right: if a + b = c, then a + b + 1 = c + 1 #mathjoycps #EBELionPRIDE

Great thinking from these awesome fifth graders at #EBELionPRIDE!!

Finally, if you have a prism that has 36 blocks and is 4 blocks wide and 3 blocks long, how tall is it?

great conversations about volume with @MrsJeanville's class over the last few days! #cpsmathjoy #EBELionPRIDE

Mizzou is hiring!

(and we proved that most people actually like math, even enough to stop and do some with strangers on the street!)

Had a great time at the #memli unconference last Saturday! We shared strategies for supporting healthy mathematics classrooms through informal and formal leadership. These folks are having a powerful impact on the ways kids are experiencing math in schools!!
