Forever grateful to my @gordoncollege professor who encouraged me to write this piece! And of course my students who inspire me to keep learning 💙 #iteachmath #mtbos

Starting in a new classroom and district this year gave me the opportunity to fully commit to using #buildingthinkingclassroom practices as often as possible. There’s been a little bit of a learning curve, but today I really saw the magic- and they did too🙌 #iteachmath

@desmosclassroom In 5th grade, Mrs. Perry took a whole class period to show us examples of how math and science depend on each other. As a teacher I try to make the same connection for my students!

@desmosclassroom Desmos has so many great features, but my favorite is the tips at the bottom of each teacher screen. These tips help keep me focused on exactly what we want students to be taking away from each activity! It’s so helpful to have it within the lesson!

@desmosclassroom Use the Desmos ratio- one computer for every 2 students! The dialogue that emerges is beautiful!! 💙

Trip to the New England Aquarium and a ferry ride home!

Probability games! Always inspiring to see the creativity and collaboration this activity brings! #iteachmath

7th graders exploring alphabetical probability- one of my absolute favorite probability tasks from @mburnsmath because it allows students to work together to organize information, ask really great questions, and reason about data sets and sample size! marilynburnsmath.com/data/alphabeti….

I will never get tired of the beautiful conversations that emerge when students get the opportunity to do math at the whiteboards with their classmates 💚 #iteachmath #buildingthinkingclassrooms

Exploring theoretical and experimental probability with a game of twister! #iteachmath #mtbos

Using spinners in 7th grade today to help us differentiate between experimental and theoretical probability! #iteachmath #mtbos

Solar eclipse 2024!!

The 8th grade exponent lessons from @desmosclassroom do SO much more than just giving students rules to memorize. These students were finding pairs and explaining why they were equivalent! #mydesmosclassroom 💙

Our 8th graders starting unit 7 today! #mydesmosclassroom #iteachmath 💙

@carnegielearn I didn’t even notice that…love it! 💐

@Ms_Claveau Love that these manipulatives look like abstract flowers. 😊 There’s so much joy in math!

Homemade algebra tiles for factoring and expanding today! #iteachmath 💚

@normabgordon @NumberHive I haven’t! I’ll definitely check that out. Thank you!!

Introducing some math games during our WIN block this week! Does anyone have any favorites these middle schoolers might want to try?! I can’t remember where I found this one, but it was a hit! #iteachmath #mtbos

Happy pi day! Perfect day for a math teacher conference! @ATMIM_Updates #mtbos #iteachmath

Getting students up and moving to practice solving equations using balanced hangers! #iteachmath #mtbos
