@TheMathGuru @YourMorning I despise rote memorization and work on teaching in a way I believe. But there is something to be said about memorizing multiplication tables for quick recall. Factors, multiples, ratios, fractions, division... I can't get anywhere because we're stuck trying to remember 3*7, 6*8

BIG NEWS! Since the internet has caused SUCH a scene over my suggestion that rote memorization is not the only way to teach math facts, @YourMorning is having me on in the new year to TEACH THE HOSTS THEIR TIMES TABLES. Officially crowdsourcing your fave strategies...and GO!

“Given that the goal of antiracist work is to challenge racism and the misinformation that supports it, all perspectives are not equally valid; some are rooted in racist ideology and needs to be uncovered and challenged.” ~ @RobinDiAngelo

I’m so excited that our system is expanding “My Hair Is My Crown” program to include training for cosmology teachers in the care & styling of Afrocentric hair. Our team also secured mannequin heads with Afro-centric hair so students can gain experience in different textured hair.
