Daughter of the King, wife of @BrandonGierach, drinker of tea, reader of books, teacher of math, and an introvert, her spirit animal is Hermione Granger.
Excited about a new weekly feature for my class (technically, right outside my door) to show more diversity in mathematics. Which do we like better? Let me know in the poll below. #MTBoS#iteachmath
“Do not waste time bothering whether you ‘love’ your neighbor; act as if you did. As soon as we do this we find one of the great secrets. When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you will presently come to love them.”

Celebrated #worldcomplimentday with my Ss on Friday by having them write notes to F&S or each other. Did we get through as much content as originally planned? No. Worth it to give them a chance to practice kindness? Yes! The tone of the math class was amazing. #MTBoS#ITeachMath
Love is easy to profess and a shit ton of work to practice.
Stay brave, awkward, and kind this week.

AP Calc class began our optimization unit today! And how pretty are the boxes stacked all nice and neat, complete with a heart a student made? @WestLutheran#MTBoS#APCalcAB
Help! I made this sign for my door, and now another teacher wants one. I know I got it off of a generator where you can type your name and out pops the cool math version. I think I originally saw it on twitter? Or from @mathequalslove? Any ideas of where to find the link? #mtbos
@theshauncarter I did this (only simpler versions) with my pre-algebra class in preparation for factoring the next year. Definitely paid off. I've got to remember to do that again this year. =]
