@proudtobe2C I am having the students choose a character trait photo. I got the idea from Molly Maloy from Lessons with Laughter. She is on Instagram. I found her idea on Pinterest. https://t.co/qbiOymiJpw

This book is amazing and I know will make me a better learner and a better teacher. Everyone has the ability to learn math and be great at it. We are not "smart" or "dumb", we are lifelong learners.
26 million people work from home at least part time and we think it’s being savvy. 3 million Teachers have to do it during a pandemic and people want their pay cut since they think they’re not working. Teachers sure do put up with a lot of crap just to educate our youth.
