@gareth_metcalfe The American Math people are moving. We just need the English and Irish maths people to come too! You all have such valuable contributions to math education!

@gareth_metcalfe Politics. Twitter (X) is owed by Elon and many are angry about his involvement with the election results and want away from the MAGA movement. They are closing their X accts and moving to Blue Sky. Some have both sites until,their followers find them on BlueSky

@gareth_metcalfe The math group is growing over there. A lot of Americans find it a better environment. It’s a pretty divided nation these days. We love the European maths community, so we’re hoping they give Blue Sky a try.

@MNmMath @pearse_margie I feel like I can close the twitter door after Margie comes over! It seems like it is working well!

@howie_hua 80+50=130 take 2 away from the 5, so they would be 130+3=133

@pearse_margie @SueOConnellMath @MNmMath @AnnEliseRecord @drnickimath @MFAnnie @RawdingMolly @joboaler I would also start with sone basic one step problems to help them understand the Whys. Ex solve these two 2x=10 And then 2x=28 setting it up as you would in the longer equation. Am I making sense?

[Shay Rost @ShayRost]

@pearse_margie @SueOConnellMath @MNmMath @AnnEliseRecord @drnickimath @MFAnnie @RawdingMolly @joboaler I would use the one with the crossing off. The long line of an equation may overwhelm kids who may already struggle with reading and get confused by the long line. I think step by step is clearer for students as they can regroup at the end of every step.

@pwharris 8x20 = 160
8x4 = 32 160 + 32 = 192. Double that to get 384

@pearse_margie I did not know you had a daughter in Colorado. My son lives out there in Loveland.

@pwharris 22x55 = 2(11x55)
11x50=550 11x5=55. 550 +50+5 = 605. Double 605 = 1,210
