LCAP Review Week kickoff! ✨ Loved the snack box 🥨 and how our leaders modeled @kaganonline strategies—proving even compliance meetings can be collaborative and fun! 🤝 #LCAP #EdLeadership #LCAP #Collaboration #Kagan Ambassadors

Building Thinking Classrooms @LomaVistaMS with Mrs.Campo. Students were engaged in conversations, checking each other’s work, discovery in math and writing their own notes. Mrs. Campos has been engaging with @pgliljedahl work and refining her practice for 3 years now. A

Mimicking still seems to be an issue

[Dᴜᴀɴᴇ Hᴀʙᴇᴄᴋᴇʀ @duanehabecker]

I’m reading this preface of a math textbook written in 1832.

Even then, they were very aware of students mimicking an understanding of mathematics rather than developing an authentic understanding.

[Karon Akins @TalkMath2Me]

Did some Building Thinking Classrooms PD today. We had a blast doing math with teacher from throughout Riverside County. @RCOE_IS @RCOE

#CountingCollections with @meganlfranke love the language to honor students thinking and what students know not what students are still working towards. #Math #Agency #StudentCentered

Great day diving into #StreetData with the @RCOE team. Looking forward to this work impacting our work with our districts. Thank you @ShaneSafir and @HuangJaz for the community and learning that took place.

My second grader practicing place value with a @Creative_Math bump it game. He asked to play after playing a video game. He is making 3 digit numbers and identifying digits in their place value. #iTeachMath #Agency #FunWithMath

What a day at the #ExcellenceThroughEquity conference. @ShaneSafir ended our day with great connections to how we can support our students in the margins using #StreetData

[Karon Akins @TalkMath2Me]

So much knowledge shared with Key note @GloriaLadson “Let us not go back to normal” “Practices will not change just because you got a new curriculum” “The answers are in our districts already” let’s keep going Riverside County @RCOE #ExcellenceThroughEquity
