When it's flannel day at school and you become a triplet.

6-2 has named themselves the G.O.A.Ts. We are the Greatest of All Time! We love working alongside the 6-1 Wonders and the 6-3 Titans.

Reviewing for their Geometry test alfresco today.

I know my middle school tik tok lingo.

Passing in the tradition from my middle school math teacher. We are watching Donald Duck in Mathemagic Land. I tell the kids I watched it on a Reel to Reel movie. It was the only movie we ever watched. I stress that the movie was old when I saw it.

Yes they are excited over inequalities. Thet going head to head in teams on https://t.co/3P4vqlFTAq

Students are working in breakout rooms and have been matched with classmates at home. Hearing them talk math again in groups makes it feel almost normal.........almost.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

@robertkaplinsky Make sure you acknowledge each student at least once in a class period. Say their name and have some interaction. This way they don’t go through a day without anyone noticing them.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

@howie_hua We start teaching them to divide with common denominators a few years ago. It is better when they need to model it. Less "rules" for them to have to remember.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

Today was great. We began our first unit. Even though they could not play the factor game against each other they had fun with the online version.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

Another first day in the books and a repeat performance is tomorrow for the Gold Students.

I went to my classroom today and it was stuck on March 13th. I cleaned it up and . I got my tape measure out for my desks. Back in rows which I do not like. A new layer to the August teacher nightmares. I really wish things could be normal again.

Teachers, let’s continue to get comfy with flexibility.

The only thing that may be a constant this year is change.

Hamilton Night❤️❤️#hamilfilm

Students are working in Zoom Breakout Rooms together in teams on an escape the room adventure that I found on https://t.co/RRt0KUjSZ4.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

Students today are playing Jeopardy in Zoom Breakout Rooms, and I am jumping from group to group. It feels almost like a normal day.

[Deborah Nixon @NixonMath11]

This is so true. I love, especially with our Connected Math Program, standing back and seeing the students discuss math. It is a great moment.

I have greatly enjoyed Andrew Lloyd Weber sharing his music and ideas during quarantine. Today is a quote that echoes my point if view when students solve math problems.
