Games are so important in math class. They create experiences with a low cost of failure. Students are encouraged to take risks, be creative, and be strategic.

I share a selection of games here: https://t.co/M67Ul2bbQr

Students don't need a perfect teacher. Students need a happy teacher, who's gonna make them excited to come to school and grow a love for learning.

[Paula Moeller, Ed.D. @psmoeller]

@themathguru shared this cycle of math fear our students experience in the classroom. Avoidance makes the anxiety worse. #cmcmath @CAMathCouncil

[Jonathan Hall @StudyMaths]

Friendly reminder-

on its own, maths can actually be interesting

(not just a mechanical process for reaching some other goal)

[Pam Harris @pwharris]

In our Journey virtual learning community this week, we leaned into what it means for us as adult learners to grow our mathematics.

Is it always vertical?
