HS Math teacher committed to rigorous, equitable instruction. Forever showing people how to love math โค๏ธ * she/her * catch me on ๐sky, same name!
Following lots of the #mtbos people to ๐sky! Same username and picture over there!
Iโll keep this up for a bit until I decide what to do, but Iโll be primarily posting over there. I hope to continue the connections Iโve made with so many of you!
The number of users, especially in the #MTBoS and #ITeachMath worlds, on that blue social media space seems to have exploded in the last few days. The conversation is more civilized, the ads are nonexistent, and the feel is surprisingly hopeful. Come join us in the Sky! ๐

Weโre doing piecewise functions next week and I have two whole block class periods to cover them.
Do you have a quick project/activity you love doing to practice graphing piecewise functions? Send it my way! #mtbos#iteachmath
@NolanFossum@Dsrussosusan Thatโs what we should have been drinking tonight but we donโt have any good cherries. And in Wisconsin, you have to have the good cherries.
@EducatorAdele Yeah I think itโs also just them being high schoolers and having a lot of other things on their mind! I have a hard time focusing on audiobooks sometimes too ๐คฃ
I sponsor the book club at school (that the kids wanted to start) but they rarely even finish the books they pick because theyโre so stressed. One girl told me today she feels like she canโt just read for fun because she feels guilty sheโs not being productive ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
@EducatorAdele They read at home and just discuss the books during book club. I actually asked if they like audiobooks and a bunch of them said they canโt focus on it!
One of my non-honors sophomores came in my room while my honors kids were doing some problems posted around the room to practice triangle similarity. Weโre wrapping up triangle congruence rules in my other class so the student asked excitedly โtheyโre doing SAS too??โ ๐คฃ
