Another Launch training done partially on a family road trip. So thankful it’s virtual so I can keep up! #Launchspringtraining @NicholeLemmon @fueledbylaunch

[Professor Pierce @MathProfPierce]

Created a short @geogebra activity to introduce Calculus I students to graphical derivatives. Designed it to get my students to create their own definition before I give them one. Want to encourage them to create the math themselves! #mtbos https://t.co/yZOlcTWXVg

Last minute Unit Circle refresher ahead of their no-calculator IB exam this afternoon. Good luck IB Seniors! You got this!! @OzarkIBDP @ozarkmath @OzarkTigers

Finishing up my Welcome Calls to parents this morning for Trigonometry in this gorgeous weather. It’s truly worth it every time! #thisiswhyiLaunch #summerTrig @fueledbylaunch

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

YES!

Love this!

Schoolwork this morning, a field trip in the afternoon to pick up flowers from the @OzarkFFA sale, and then an evening of planting. #gorgeousday #tigersstrongertogether

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

We are loving the activities sent for this guy from his wonderful teachers at @OzarkTigerPaw. He’s thrilled to have “work” like his big sister too. @OzarkTigers #cuttingcountingwritinggluing #tigersstrongertogether

Whatcha Reading Wednesday: Harry Potter #2 with Dad and Mixed Up Files... with Mom. #TigersStrongerTogether @OzarkPhysics @OzarkTigers

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

Discovering what type of function is generated from the rebound heights of a ball dropped an infinite number of times. #Algebra1Investigations #discretedata #experimentaldata #mathlove @ozarkmath

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

A little snow day doesn’t stop a @fueledbylaunch Final happening at 7:30a...despite this guy being grumpy because I can’t play with him just yet, but at least he’s on my lap! #determinedstudents #thisiswhyiLaunch #finalsweek

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

Isn’t the best way to start a Monday morning by solving systems of equations on the board? #gottawakethemup #morningmath #AlgebraInvestigations

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

Discovering that rebound ratios correspond to the slope of the function generated when dropping balls from various heights. #A2Investigations @ozarkmath

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

@M_and_H_Pearson @Google @fueledbylaunch Oh no, I had no idea. That terrifies me! 😬

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

@Google Voice might be one of the best tools for teachers EVER. I was able to have multiple, productive conversations going simultaneously with so many parents today to update them on their child’s progress. #thanksGoogle #thisiswhyilaunch @fueledbylaunch

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

Investigating growth using various manipulatives and scenarios in Algebra 1. Student engagement was fantastic on this one! #AlgebraInvestigations #mathlove #thisiswhyiteach #Ozarktigers

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

@fueledbylaunch Hooray! And also, I need one. 😁

Fun fact:

[Fermat's Library @fermatslibrary]

Here's why the circle has 360 degrees: around 2400 B.C., the ancient Sumerians noticed the Sun's annual path across the sky was ~ 360 days. In order to track the Sun's motion, they decided to divide the circle in 360 degrees.

[Fermat's Library @fermatslibrary]

2⁴ = 4²
is the only positive integer solution of aᵇ=bᵃ, assuming that a≠b.

[Mrs. L. Erickson @MrsEricksonMath]

About to post grades for my @fueledbylaunch MA/Trigonometry class, who learned and completed all of this course in under a month. This is quite a task & I’m so proud of how hard they all worked! #soimpressed #thisiswhyilaunch #readyforHLmathnow
