A toxic positive attitude will lessen your stress as much as new overhead transparencies will solve your ed tech issues.

@AnkerMath @HannahBeth28 This might be something to look at for the desmos portion of the tech scavenger hunt activity you were thinking to get students used to the tech we use in class.
English
Planning on using desmos in distance learning? Here's an activity perfect for your first synchronous session with your students. Get to know them & teach them how to use desmos activities.

@AllisonCiura @VHHSMath @Desmos I love this activity! We do this with physical uno cards as an intro to proofs, but it would be awesome to have a digital version as another option. Do you have a link to this activity you mind sharing?
English
Today was truly UNO of a kind using the card game to introduce proofs to Geometry classes with a Desmos activity! @VHHSMath @Desmos #D128Daring #iteachmath #geometry

@MrCorleyMath With grading, focusing more on completion with feedback and then a short accuracy grade at the end of about a two week period. (Exempted if it lowers their grade).With content, slowing down considerably. Limiting to 30 minutes per day. Covering about two lessons per week.

@zthomaswick21 Thanks Zach, sort of what we are doing. Plan moving forward? Stay safe!
English
Is your school changing grading during these difficult times? TIA!

@MrsSheehanMath @zthomaswick21 This is fantastic news!!! Thank you so much for sharing @MrsSheehanMath. And as always, thanks for being awesome and listening to teachers @Desmos !

I got to test this out last week, and it was a game changer with kids working at home at different times. I’m so excited for more people to try it out!!

@Teachmathtorr @AlgebraDesmos Thank you! @HannahBeth28 , some possible resources for the next few weeks.

Hey #Geometry Teachers, If you are distance learning, here are some Desmos Activities I use in Geometry. (ones highlighted in yellow are new, specifically for this distance learning for my students - only 1 new one so far) #gid=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… #ITeachMath #GeomChat

@BoundsofoutMath @scratch @HannahBeth28 Perhaps something that could be done as a post milestone activity or something your student who finishes everything early might enjoy?
English
Students enjoying a @scratch application of trigonometry today in Algebra II. Coding a “Hypnotic Square” using tangent inverse angles and distance formula. Lesson here csandmath.org/2018/08/16/hyp… #mtbos #csforall #csandmath #iteachmath
English
@zthomaswick21 Seems like a good idea for a milestone review day...especially in Geometry!
Sarah Carter@mathequalslove
New game: Teams are given the stems of Qs from past ACT exams. They work to find the correct answer & generate 4 distractors. 10 pts for each correct answer. 5 bonus pts for each distractor that matches the ACT. Much more interesting than usual test prep! #mtbos #iteachmath

“Math people” and “non-math people” don’t exist. So, why do we keep pushing this myth? asks EdWeek Assistant Editor @SarahDSparks. #K12BigIdeas edweek.org/ew/articles/20…
