Join me at the Florida Association of Mathematics Supervisors Virtual Conference on October 18 from 8:30 - 11:30. I’ll be delivering an Ignite session between sessions. #EveryoneIsAMathPerson #ChangeTheStory @CTLGConsulting This event is FREE! Register: flfams.com

@merryfwilliams @brightpointccva Congrats!

After 21 years with Chesterfield Co Public Schools, I am graduating with my seniors. I’ve accepted a full time position at @brightpointccva and will be teaching math there this fall!

@SkipTylerMath @bnusshhs Thanks for coming to sharing with us! It was a great session for our first conference in 3 years. Imagine my surprise when I got home and saw a #skipselfie on my phone. 😂 Not sure how you managed that. #igotskipped

Awesome evening with the Valley of Virginia Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Such positive energy on a weeknight in April. Thanks for inviting me! #ChangeTheStory #ReasoningRoutines #SkipSelfie @bnusshhs @math_rickard

@alicekeeler I “read” it in my head as 9 groups of 9 - 8 groups of 9 + 7 groups of 9 … to help me calculate.

What do you notice?? No paper or pen! First contemplate then Calculate #cvmn

@LieslMcconchie @Farrley I taught an elem math methods course last semester. When we got to the topic of fact fluency, the negative feelings associated with their facts learning experiences from 10-12 years ago was still so strong (the mention of mad minutes and ice cream sundae awards had them 😡)

We're missing the point about math anxiety and timed math tests. Whether the relationship is causational or not is NOT what's significant. The entanglement of these 2 concepts is blinding us to the dangers each brings to a student. Lean in, folks. I'm fired up. 🧵 #MTBoS

@Deb__Crawford @scl_va @teachsci4all @MapM8ker @awfrench1 @pammoran @codeva Thanks for a great session.

Which K-12 instructional shifts will include data literacy across all content areas? Had too much fun today doing Data Science at UVA w/@scl_va @teachsci4all @MapM8ker @awfrench1 @pammoran @codeva

@GotMathHelp You can go on AP’s website and look up the university to see what their policy is (it will link to university page). I was looking for my son and found VA Tech had a page that gave scores required, what class it would count for, and the restrictions depending on the major.

@Lempp5 Looks like fun times!

When you pack for a trip, but there's no room for clothes.... 😬🤦🏻‍♀️

We still have some spots available for high school math, science, CTE, and computer science teachers! 🤩 We're betting you can find some creative ways to spend $3000 on professional learning over the next two years!! 🤔 #choice4teachers @directorofppi/video/7145525891131657514" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@directorofppi…

@SkipTylerMath Congrats on your new chapter of life!

I will miss the daily interactions and #selfies and I hope our paths will stay connected as I enter the next chapter of my career. Stay tuned! #HenricoHOPES

I’ve been lucky to call @HenricoSchools & @HenricoMath my work place for the last 31 years! These are just some of the people who lifted me up on a daily basis. Thank you to all who have been a part of my circle of friends and colleagues. ❤️ #EveryoneIsAMathPerson #ChangeTheStory

@RileyMathClass @MakeMathMoments Check out @skewthescript too

I’m pretty sure I heard the last two guests on @MakeMathMoments mention learning from twitter. So here I am. Is it possible to make Algebra 2 engaging? I’m going to try. #MTBoS #ITeachMath #mathchat

@theresawills @robertqberry Exactly!

@tracyjoproffitt Thanks!! 🤪 This is what I was using at first.

I think I see 8 now @math_rickard! #vctm22

@gautiersue I love this idea! Thanks for sharing.

Today students submitted the last self assessment for this term which included an email to a parent 🤓 #iteachmath #mtbos

@HollyLouYah That’s amazing!

@robertqberry @saravdwerf @4mpberry If a student showed work and gets partial credit on other test questions where they also put the wrong answer down, I don’t see why you wouldn’t do the same for MC questions (assuming the work is there). Unless your purpose is to mimic the state testing where that isn’t the case.

@KristieDonavan @pgliljedahl @AlexOverwijk I have a few teachers that have a 3-4 questions on a page and make a packet with all the problems. They tape page protectors next to the group boards, then slide the question packet in. Groups can progress through them once they checked their work (with other groups or teacher).

#thinkingclassroom question: when giving a series of problems (thin slices), how do you give groups the next problem? I’ve tried different strategies and I’m curious to know what is working for others. @pgliljedahl @AlexOverwijk #MTBoS #iteachmath

@JustinAion When I was in the classroom, I would just casually mention that they might hear it called FOIL by others and also that it was limited on the problems it could be applied to.
