@maryepilgrim @bowenkerins woh!

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@AuroraBirdialis @smiley_math Oh yeah. Color coding is huge! I always color code with related things. Like when I’m doing work on the board on multi step equations, my “steps” like +4 to both sides are always in a different color

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@maryepilgrim For example, we’re doing double distribution and factoring in Algebra 1 right now. Using the area/box model is extremely helpful for organization. Another example - in 7th grade using tables and models like double number lines and bar models throughout is very helpful

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@maryepilgrim I should create a website with all my ideas haha. Mainly the consistent use of visual models is extremely helpful. Any way visuals can be used, it’s helpful for all but especially helpful for those that struggle

@maryepilgrim @matienda @Stelladuma @fdizzle1955 Remember when we were able to travel... and be with people. Ahhh, those were the days...

@Mythagon eWeather HD has been my go-to weather app for 8 years. I have an iPhone, but I think it's on Android too

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@fawnpnguyen These are wonderful. Very well organized, easy to follow, not overwhelming, and a great mix of questions to get kids thinking in every grade. Thank you for putting this all together :)

Good God, I'm finally done with our Mathematics K-8
Remote Learning Activities. I'd grateful for your help with the answer key (link is on the same page).

Free 6-month use of TI-84 app from TI. Great if you have students that don't have a graphing calc at home https://t.co/3ti2MGvLmx #MTBoS

Democrat Gov (Kentucky) vs. Republican Gov (Tennessee)

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

Look at the difference between how the Kentucky Governor and Tennessee Governor handled the Coronavirus

And look at the results of those policies

@MrDeltaMath @EverscienceM Thank you for all your amazing work! What has been a great resource is now turning into an invaluable tool for many teachers across the nation :)

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@NYCMayor Please close the schools starting on Monday. As a teacher that is not part of the high risk population I am more than happy to help students that need food or a place to be during the day, but conducting business as usual is a mistake and puts our population at risk

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@MrKitMath There are a few CUNYs that offer "advanced certs" which you could take classes at. I took my classes at Lehman in the Bronx... I think Brooklyn College also offers it. Hunter has a full masters program - not sure if they'd let you take individual classes w/o going for a masters

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@MrKitMath Aye. Yeah no need for another masters. Go through that self certification check list and see what you need. If you take a few classes from a CUNY school they will probably have a certification specialist in the education dept that can help you review your credits and self cert

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@MrKitMath Basically you need either a recommendation by a university (completion of advanced certification or masters) OR you need to take all those courses listed and do a self cert with all your college transcripts and and CLEP tests. I did the latter and finished my masters a year later

[Jake Leibold @leiboldmath]

@MrKitMath You can either do a certification program through a university or get a whole 2nd masters. Lehman College has both, and so do a few other CUNYs. I actually got my license before I finished my 2nd masters because I did the "additional classroom teaching cert" - e.g. self cert

2000 was 20 years ago which is really weird because 1980 was also 20 years ago

When you see your mentor teacher, who now lives in LA, speaking at NCTM in Salt Lake, before you also speak at the same conference. @cluzniak
