Math is fascinating, important, and FUN. So are middle schoolers. #MTBoS #iteachmath

@mathequalslove I asked Craig Winske @seewins to update his Desmos activity for 2023 and he came through! https://t.co/2jA5kkSrJi

@seewins @Desmos You are awesome! I cannot thank you enough!

The most common IEP accommodation is extended time. What if we allowed additional time to any student? Or didn't time at all? If speed isn't what we're assessing, extended time doesn't change the standard. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #ATAssessment

@seewins @Desmos THANK YOU! I like to make this a challenge for my students to work on over Christmas break!

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

@seewins @Desmos My students loved this last year. Any chance you're creating a new one for 2023? Please? 😀

@Dsrussosusan @kathyhen_ @mathequalslove Thank you so much for this! I LOVED the crystal ball Flash version and was heartbroken when it stopped working. This is a great replacement. 🎃

Year 22 of teaching has officially begun, and my second year of using @pgliljedahl’s Building Thinking Classrooms. I might not know all my students’ names yet, but I’ve already heard a ton of rich mathematical discussions! My heart is full @StTimsRaleigh

@MathByTheMt 1 class of 6, and the others are 16. Lucky, I know!

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

@MathByTheMt I am doing 4 groups of 4. I also touch base with the 6th grade math teacher for recs on who might not be the best fit for each other in the groups to start. And I still mix up group work randomly so that they’re not always working with the same people.

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

@druinok Yes - luckily my school has tons of it! I start with red for Unit 1 and then progress through ROYGBIV for each subsequent unit.

@marithekid7 @WKCDOGS I stumbled across your tweet and had to say hello from my own Frenchie named Muffin! (Our last name is Mann so that makes her …)

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

@matherinep @kathyhen_ @JustinAion @Desmos @mathequalslove ME TOO. I’m usually good with things like this - but I’m clicking everything and not figuring anything out. The best I’ve done is getting the water faucet to turn on and off. 🤷‍♀️

@kathyhen_ congrats! hope you get a shout-out!

@kathyhen_ @WODBMath Open Middle!

3 highlights of Pi Day @StTimsRaleigh: 1) proving the formula for the area of a circle with paper plates; 2) Moon Pies; and 3) celebrating Richmond’s big 🏀 win yesterday. (As one student pointed out, you can’t spell Spider without Pi!) 🕷🕷🕷

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

@BurnsideMath Don’t you get chills sometimes? Amazing.

[Sara Mann @MannMath7]

Another awesome Figure It Out Friday @StTimsRaleigh! I often get chills listening to the rich math conversations as groups tackle problems on their vertical whiteboards. Thanks @pgliljedahl! #thinkingclassroom
