Attempting the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs ... my passion is spatial

a visual proof that the volume and surface area of a torus is the same as a cylinder (with radius r and height 2πR). Each swivel does not change the volume or surface area

A very interesting article about some current stressors during our current educational model... https://t.co/BB72O7XhGM

Here are 4 great simulations that can help students understand exponential growth... the last one should help with why social distancing is so important. https://t.co/fxme8h98fh

I wanted to share a UDL checklist for designing remote learning during this time. Feedback welcomed. Stay safe stay healthy, keep the harmony going #Covid19UDLChecklist https://t.co/oV697BaUoC

[Fawn Nguyen @fawnpnguyen]

OK, hoping this new page/link for the K-8 remote lessons is better. I now have 2 weeks done.

Today we are being inspired by Peter and the “thinking classroom”... how are we keeping students in flow?

Just working with a teacher on visualizing PI... why not apply tape on round objects and have the students “see” the constant... have fun👍🏻

[Darin @DTru_Fan]

Grades 5-9 teachers visualizing some interesting combinations using fraction circles... nice support for adding👍🏻

The math nerd in me marvels at the way God designed our universe. Happy #FibonacciDay

Just completed a great intro session with HS teachers in a dynamic based system... Varafy. Very impressed with how intuitive the system is. The image shows iterations by simply clicking the little blue button👍🏻 great options for visuals here! #LSI_on_learning @@GetVarafy

Working through fractions with James Tanton... great question he challenged us with. We hear much about Nix-the-Tricks, but maybe that is where some deep questions lie?!😊 #LSI_on_Learning

[James Tanton @jamestanton]

Some State/Province/Country standards require students to know that pi is irrational. What does "know" mean here? Have you ever wrapped a string around a lid 7 times? As far as the eye can tell, it equals 22 times the diameter of the lid. Seriously, try it!

[Darin @DTru_Fan]

Working with an interesting image at the annual MCATA conference. Can we use our understanding of right triangles to determine the 1/2chord AB? Great way to bridge our G9 circle geometry into G10 trig👍🏻 #LSI_on_learning

Working with students to visualize the classic tangram during Read In week here at ECSD... if you have not had a chance to become familiar with this book 👍🏻👍🏻 #LSI_on_Learning

[Darin @DTru_Fan]

Having a great time reading selected chapters to ECSD students for the start of reading week. Students for the first block had a chance to contextualize the 4-fours problem from chapter 7. #LSI_on_Learning

thinking about this, I was reminded of this gif where each ball travels in a straight line but the system wide effect is wonderful

[Darin @DTru_Fan]

Math teachers were considering the difference between the words assessment and evaluation during our first DWPD event... some interesting questions we did consider😊 #ECSDfaithinspires @LSI_on_Learning

This afternoon we had a great community of mathletes competing for our new trophy ... firstly, a BIG thanks to the St Joesph welding department for this great piece of hardware! ... secondly, CONGRATS to the Oscar Romero mathletes as they took home the prize👍🏻

[Darin @DTru_Fan]

This is an interesting idea and has given me much 🤔... but then again I am a little biased on leveraging visuals 😜 https://t.co/YDUYnlN2h6
