@Mr_Oldfield@rickwormeli2 When I was in my 2nd year teaching, I went to hear @rickwormeli2 speak. It changed the way I viewed EVERYTHING in my classroom and was a catalyst for necessary change. “Grades shouldn’t be used as rewards. Nor should they be used as affirmation, compensation, or validation.”
Come hang out with @mrs_floresmath and me to dig in and learn together about highlighting student brilliance and driving conversation in your @desmosclassroom !!

@CincyMathNinja Worked for 5 years on detracking our math classrooms. Had 2 committees and showed the research and scores and got shot down at the top! Made some gains but so far to go. @CaityLarson are presenting our journey at #NCSM Annual this month.
Attempted a new starter screen activity in @Desmos for some fun class conversations and reasoning. A new TWIST on wheels vs. doors. Feedback welcome, I tried some new CL! https://t.co/tdWcyRRCXB #mtbos#mathchat#mathEd#desmos
@TMEvans89 More whiteboards!! Or Wipebook Flipcharts for students to present work to each other in a non-permanent kind of way. Also more anchor charts in high school!!
A couple years ago, a student said "I know it cancels, but I forgot if it cancels to 0 or 1" so it inspired today's tip of the day to be more precise in language as "cancel" means two things. -5+5 creates a zero pair, 5/5 simplifies to 1.
