Never let your students forget that loads of math is just noticing stuff and making up names for it. #iteachmath https://t.co/Nz9VavwEY2

Introduced systems of linear inequalities today in summer school algebra. Students worked in pairs, using sharpies and page protectors. Each graphed an inequality, then considered their system together. #mtbos #iteachmath

I have come to appreciate the love God has for us in the Mass and His desire for me to be there. https://t.co/XZJoHpSF0e via @blessedisshe__

Contrary to what some believe, teachers DO NOT receive ‘summers off.’ We’re only paid to work for the contractual days we signed up for. Besides, we need to keep up with our PD to hold on to our certificates (which we pay for) and get ready for the new school year. 🙃

Don’t solve it....
Instead, please share which row(s) or column(s) you would look at FIRST.

God tells us not to fear. It’s that deep, radical trust in the face of the violent storms that Jesus asks of me. https://t.co/ZSdH9dbrKU via @kendra_tierney

Following Jesus and moving forward takes diligent work and, at times, sacrifice, but this is our calling! https://t.co/EFF8hBVYZ6 via @bobbi_rol

In case you need some quadratic formula humor today. Definitely not what I was expecting from my google search, but amusing nonetheless! If the IRS had discovered the quadratic formula... https://t.co/0TW3xiLPEv #mtbos #iteachmath

Really great ideas here!

And this is how we roll on exam day in MCV4U
Part 1 Collaborative
Part 2 Individual
Can’t stress enough how relaxed the atmosphere is. Total collective learning.

@AlexOverwijk @pgliljedahl How do you put your students in groups? Is it random or planned? I would love to see your tasks as well: [email protected]

[Amanda Atkinson @alstechs]

@LoriBoll Definitely on the list. Thanks!

My school is going to do a freshman “orientation” week in the fall the first week of school. Any great ideas out there? Teaching common expectations, speakers and team building? #EdChat #MTBoS
