@pwharris 1275/85 = 2550/170 = 255/17, and 17 x 5 = 85, and 3 groups of 85 fit inside 255, so 15 x 17 = 255, and 1275/85 = 15!

Students struck a power pose before taking a quiz. Not only was it fun, they may have more confidence and score higher!

I loved sharing about research-informed practices that I incorporate in my classroom last night at Back To School Night! The list includes: vertical non-permanent surfaces (aka whiteboards), retrieval practice, spacing, interleaving, metacognition, and various groupings! #mbe

@EconTalker Check out @PoojaAgarwal's book #PowerfulTeaching for four effective strategies that help people deeply learn! One example is #retrievalpractice: just like your idea to have groups of people discuss the topic from three weeks ago. Great episode with @andy_matuschak!

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

Using #retrievalpractice and #spacing for my husband to learn my phone number! 😂 It's working! @PoojaAgarwal @PatriceBain1

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

Doesn’t get much better than lounging and learning. @PoojaAgarwal @RetrieveLearn @austintrinity

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

@PoojaAgarwal What a delight getting to sit next to you on the bus to @TheCTTL. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, insight, and story.

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

Counting down the days until @TheCTTL's Leadership Academy! I know I am going to walk away like a new teacher-researcher. I cannot wait for all that I'm going to learn and experience, and then bring back to @austintrinity!

8/6 = 4/3 and 4/3 divided by 1/3 equals 4!

(25 x 4) x (18/4)
100 x 4.5 = 450 #mathstratchat

Enjoyed this quick formative assessment I created on @desmos for translations and reflectiond. Task: identify the translation rule and/or the line of reflection from the green line segment to the others. #mtbos

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

@mjfenton Thank you so much for your engaging, helpful session on Saturday! I love how #social, #delightful, & #creative @Desmos seeks to be! What an awesome, always improving, free tool you provide students & teachers! #mtbos

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

What research is out there about the benefits of connecting prior knowledge explicitly when teaching a new concept, particularly in mathematics? #research #mtbos #mathchat #iteachmath #priorknowledge #bestpractices #nctm @nctm

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

I certainly did! @CuveeCoffee And I 100% plan to be a part of the official launch! Can't wait. Thank you for your hard work and ingenuity!

[🧠The CTTL🎓 @TheCTTL]

@MathEnthusiasm @gwhitmancttl @neuro_teach Thks @MathEnthusiasm for the testimonial. Did you have a good cup of coffee beside #neuroteachglobal? Your pilot feedback is important as we prepare to officially launch in early 2019 w/1500 educators from around the world. I hope you are one of them. https://t.co/4YUuyoshXu

[Bonner Klatt @MathEnthusiasm]

Woke up this morning having finished my second pilot of @TheCTTL's Neuroteach Global and strongly desiring more! It is professional learning in an engaging format. My type of computer game ;) I'd do it everyday if I could! @gwhitmancttl @neuro_teach #mbe #buildingforeverybrain

Great article about the importance of teenagers (& teachers) understanding their brain development! https://t.co/ZHbkFsKcYD
