@atomrobinson @bjtumm @wantedj @nickwoltman @rljourno @LiftGarage Atom and Matt - you rock- is the Lift ok?

@mgolding To follow @MartaStoeckel’s post, I ask students to discuss shape, correlation, interpret intercept, and interpret slope in their small groups before starting large group circle. (I mistakenly thought kids were doing this as they prepped whiteboards, but they were not).

@MartaStoeckel Nice Job Marta!!

My son designed this for my birthday- apparently the printer liked it enough for a shout out #dishwashingdad

@valmonticue Val you were great in the equity discussion- challenging, respectful, thoughtful, real. You and @kellyoshea were able to get points across effectively to white straight guys (like me).

@BEphysics Thanks for being there - I think any deliberate examination of our practice- no matter the scale- leads to improved experiences for students and teachers

All ready for the kinematics card sort - thanks for the idea @kellyoshea ! #physicsdiscourse

@ntmoore @plulai @rutherfordcasey @fnoschese @phil_sinner I think reducing the # of incorrect would be good - just a lot of symbolic thinking for day 3...

@plulai I have heard of people using hardware store clips designed to hold brooms, modeled after pasco bracket

[Scot Hovan @ScotHovan]

@rutherfordcasey @ijkijKevin I used the similar one from Pasco (ME-6800) $355 - also pricey but great.
